I guess so, but then that is kind of lumping it in the fps bot behaviour from the 90s which was also "AI", it's the AI hype that is pushing people to think of it as "intelligent but not organic" instead of "algorithms that give the facade of intelligence" which 90s kids would have understood it to be.
The chess opponent on Atari is AI too. I think the issue is that when most people hear "intelligence," they immediately think of human-level or general intelligence. But an LLM - while intelligent - is only so in a very narrow sense, just like the chess opponent. One’s intelligence is limited to playing chess, and the other’s to generating natural-sounding language.
