“Artificial Intelligence” refers to a sub-discipline of computer science, not an anthropological or neurological study of human capability, and it has been well-defined since the 1960s-70s.
Ah. So your argument is “we have defined ‘intelligence’ in a way that is literally not accepted by anybody but us, therefore we have made an artificial version of it”.
Anselm’s ontological proof of the existence of AI.
Bravo.
You’ve managed to recreate one of the most famous 11th century tautologies.
From biology. Or psychology. Or neurology. Or philosophy, even.
It’s pretty clear from their writing that the original AI researchers thought they were on the path to the “intelligence” talked of in these other disciplines and that it only became the very narrowly-defined field mentioned above years after their abject failure at actually capturing what anybody else would call intelligence.
And now the term “artificial intelligence” is essentially just a marketing term, with as much meaning as any other random pair of words used for marketing purposes.
We can’t even agree on a definition for “intelligence” so it’s pretty obvious we haven’t got an artificial version of it yet.
Can’t make what you can’t even define, after all. “Artificial intelligence” is about as meaningful a term as “artificial geflugelschnitz”.

If it’s about computer science, then use terms from computer science instead of misleading and dishonest terms from biology.
“Data processing” is fine.
