I send "AI" to the spam folder in general. No one who is actually doing AI calls it AI. It's only called AI in glossy consultant brochures with stock images of a man in a business suit surfing through a tunnel of glowing blue numbers.

Everyone calls it AI. It just so happens that it became a large field, so people tend to say that they work in Machine Learning, or Reinforcement Learning, or Evolutionary Computation. The same as in any other field really.

The exceptions that prove the rule. These are the most consultant-surfing-glowing-blue-number-flavored conferences.

Not researchers, according to the peanut gallery.

I’m quite certain Demis Hassabis uses the term regularly, Nature should unpublish him.
