This is a popular sentiment, but you can still do impressive things with it even if it isn't.
It's some weird semantic nitpickery that suddenly became popular for reasons that baffle me. "AI" has been used in videogames for decades and nobody has come out of the woodwork to "um, actually" it until now. I get that people are frightened of AI and would like to minimize it but this is a strange way to do it.
At least "stochastic parrot" sounded kind of amusing.
I've been decrying the fact that video game AI isn't actually AI since I was, like, 13. That's why it sucks so bad compared to actual human players.
