More or less, but "AI" is a bit relative. I agree with Hofstadter
"AI" is when the program are not yet written, and once written we
take them as conventional programming. That is not strictly true,
but there is something in it.
The last time I took a course in AI, in the late 70's, the professor
explained that intelligence was defined as "whatever the computer
can't do yet".
Exactly. (But one day it may be "what people can't do yet" !)
Even if machines stop to progress, one day they might be more clever
than us. It is enough that human get more stupid, and the "education
environment" might be going in that way.
