That's not AI, that's just a program easily able to do that without all the "AI" garbage technology. Why do we all of a sudden think that every solution computing does is "AI" now? For fuck's sake.
A program that can deduce what groceries you need to buy is a type of AI. AI is a much broader category than the LLM stuff that everyone is currently paying attention to. Most things in the field of AI don't have particularly awe inspiring appearances, so companies don't feel compelled to advertise that it's AI because people expect AI to be "like people" which precludes the vast majority of applications.
