I mean, it's a little arbitrary to say "AI begins here". They're trained off datasets, but I would say that, for example, OCR is very successful, has been around for a while, and definitely uses machine learning.
Ditto for speech recognition.
On the other hand, none of these are capable of generalized problem-solving, either, AGI, which is really the sort of thing that I'm usually thinking of as being significant.
@tal
I think you’re missing the point. OCR has a different impact from an AI generated picture or song, whatever you think of the quality.
It’s different from AI writing emails for me. Sure it’s just dumb emails, but that’s the problem, for many that’s half their job. For many working artists, dumb songs and pictures was half their job. Half of who they are.
Forget AGI, we’re creatures of habit more than reasoning, I can buy a machine that’s a better artist than me but not wash my clothes.
