Like most clever things marketers do, that quote is borrowed nearly verbatim from a much older quote without reference.

"AI is whatever hasn't been done yet."

From Douglas Hofstadter quoting Larry Tesler in 1980

Anyone who has studied AI and its history at all knows that similar quotes to Godin have been going on since the 70s an even that quote from Tesler.

There's an entire wikipedia article on the AI effect[0] if you want to dive deeper.
