What did they even expect, calling something "AI" when it's no more "AI" than a Perl script determining whether a picture contains more red color than green or vice versa.

Anything making some kind of determination via technical means, including MCs and control systems, has been called AI.

When people start using the abbreviation as if it were "the" AI, naturally first there'll be a hype of clueless people, and then everybody will understand that this is no different from what was before. Just lots of data and computing power to make a show.
