Hmmm, what exaclty does the AI run on? COMPUTERS.
And here is what AI is:
Artificial intelligence (
AI) is
intelligence demonstrated by
machines, as opposed to intelligence of
humans and
other animals. Example tasks in which this is done include
speech recognition, computer vision, translation between (natural) languages, as well as other mappings of inputs.
AI applications include advanced
web search engines (e.g.,
Google Search),
recommendation systems (used by
YouTube,
Amazon, and
Netflix),
understanding human speech (such as
Siri and
Alexa),
self-driving cars (e.g.,
Waymo),
generative or
creative tools (
ChatGPT and
AI art),
automated decision-making, and competing at the highest level in
strategic game systems (such as
chess and
Go).

As machines become increasingly capable, tasks considered to require "intelligence" are often removed from the definition of AI, a phenomenon known as the
AI effect. For instance,
optical character recognition is frequently excluded from things considered to be AI, having become a routine technology."
Yeah, when they plug in a shit-ton of data and the computer spits out a result based on processing all that data, it's AI at work.
"SIRI, where is the closest gas station?" AI at work.
Plane flying into a mountain. "Pull up. Pull up. Pull up." AI at work.
Traffic lights that adjust their timing based on traffic patterns. AI at work.
A thermostat that changes it's heat/cool cycle based on activity in the house. AI at work.
Predictive typing on your phone. AI at work.
AI that is running on...COMPUTERS.
No conflating at all.
