I asserted that typing in what you want and feeding it into something that outputs code is a compiler. Call that AI if you want, but I've always known that to be a compiler. Again, I'm old, so maybe terms are changing and I'm not in touch with that. I don't know. I'm not sure I care. Logically, "compiler" when used in my writings means what I want it to mean. It makes no difference what other people think it means.
