My company, while cutting back elsewhere, has dedicated a few million to AI projects over the next couple years. Not "projects to solve X business problem." Just projects that use AI.

So of course now, anything that is automated in any way is now being touted as AI. Taking data from one system and populating another? That's AI.

Well, it is. You just have to go back enough in time to find the context when people still called it so.

Gotta use those automatic computers full of electronic brains to do all those tasks that used to take years on rooms full of people with chemical brains hired as computers!
