It's a semi-automatic rifle, if you put a shorter barrel in it, it's
still an automatic rifle in carbine configuration.
Technically to be an assault rifle it would need to have selective fire
control.

Actually, the discussion was mainly about nomenclature of an AR-15, and whether
it is properly called a carbine, a rifle, or an assault rifle.
Actually, firearms are much closer to Mercedes content than are apple trees;
since they are both the pinnacle of mechanical technology of their time.
I'm not opposed to discussing hardware, be it small arms, watches, washing
machines, iPhone, or Mercedes.
Just don't mix in emotion, and or politics.
