Um, actually clueless people have made "that's not real AI" and "but computers will never ..." complaints about AI as long as it has existed as a computing science topic. (50 years?)

Chatbots and image generators being in the headlines has made a new loud wave of complainers, but they've always been around.

It's exactly that "new loud wave of complainers" I'm talking about.

I've been in computing and specifically game programming for a long time now, almost two decades, and I can't recall ever having someone barge in on a discussion of game AI with "that's not actually AI because it's not as smart as a human!" If someone privately thought that they at least had the sense not to disrupt a conversation with an irrelevant semantic nitpick that wasn't going to contribute anything.
