I wish that machine learning wasn’t being mislabeled as AI. It’s pattern recognition, not intelligence.

While I don't disagree that "AI" as a term is being abused, the distinction you're making seems very much a philosophical one.

One could argue intelligence is pattern recognition. One important aspect of human intelligence is neocortex -- a part of brain -- that exists in all mammals and mammals only. It serves as a pattern recognizer in mammal brains that helps them recognize certain sound, day/night, visual patterns etc...
