Situations where I see the term "artificial intelligence" used:

(1) a legacy hold-over from the bad old days when people thought symbolic inference was central to human intelligence (e.g. AAAI, JAIR)

(2) research on extending old-fashioned AI to be actually useful (e.g. Markov Logic Networks)

(3) most commonly (as in this case), a vaguely defined desired outcome and a bundle of poorly understood cool-sounding techniques.
