Beware of AI pseudoscience and snake oil
I think the term 'Intelligence' is what is causing the problem. If something like 'statistical modelling' or 'quasi-stochastic information compression' was used instead there would be much less hot air.For example, in Real Time Analytics, there is something called a 'sketch', which though clever statistical techniques allows approximations of such things like top 10, average etc, without having to recalculate from the whole dataset each time of asking. Nobody claims this has anything to do with intelligence, artifical or otherwise.
