"AI" is a very broad term that encompasses everything from simple pathfinding algorithms to game decision trees to state of the art machine learning models to AGI itself. It all falls under the category of artificial intelligence.

Large language models like ChatGPT are a type of neural network that are trained with deep learning techniques, which itself is a subset of machine learning, which is in turn a subset of artificial intelligence.

So yes, ChatGPT is 100% AI.

Also, why don't you simply look that term up on Wikepedia? It makes it abundantly clear what AI encompasses.

I did look up the meaning at different places and I get varied results. IBM makes it sound like this is a "weak" AI, but then I get responses to me claiming it such as wrong.

While others say if it just passes the Turing test. While others say predictive algorithms aren't really intelligent and don't constitute an AI.

I guess it comes down to what is the "intelligence part" and if predictive algorithms fit into that. What is the threshold.

So, I figured I get a consensus on what people think if it is.

You are definitely overthinking this. The fact that it is divided into "weak ai" and "strong ai" just proves my point that AI is a catch-all term. The chess app on your phone is AI. So are large language models. So is stable diffusion. So is the boss in your video game.

Any algorithm or software that can make any level of decision on its own based on a given input is AI, no matter how useful or limited it may be. You're crowdsourcing opinion from people who don't know what they're talking about, so that's not really useful.
