AI was a computer science term before any industry adopted it.

The colloquial use of "AI" is basically the Hollywood concept of a conscious computer. Nobody knows about AI as it's used in computer science industry. Nor does it matter in regular discourse. In this sense it's not AI. It's a disservice to lead the on laypeople to believe it's something it's not.
