Wasn’t this just voice recognition for orders? We’ve been doing this for years without it being called AI, but I guess now the marketing people are in charge
A computer: does anything.
Tech journalists: is this AI?
Voice recognition is “AI“*, it even uses the same technical architecture as the most popular applications of AI - Artificial neural networks.
* - depending on the definition of course.
Well, given that we're calling pretty much anything AI these days, it probably fits.
But I honestly don't consider static models to be "AI," I only consider it "AI" if it actively adjusts the model as it operates. Everything else is some specific field, like NLP, ML, etc. If it's not "learning," it's just a statistical model that gets updated periodically.
