I saw someone unironically last month call Excel spreadsheet formulas "AI".
The term is rapidly approaching meaninglessness when used by anyone remotely non-technical. I'm probably going to miss an edge case here, but basically:
Classic AI = mostly search algorithms (Dijkstra, A*, etc), simple neural nets (e.g. perceptron) and prolog (to trivialise logic languages)
Modern AI = Machine Learning and the utilisation of those models trained by it. (Tensorflow, LLMs, etc)
Everything else = not AI, just technology.
I would include "video game AI" since semantically it is pretty well-accepted, even though it's not really AI. Things like goal-based behaviour as well as the pathfinding algos you mentioned.
There's the edge case haha, yeah I agree, game AI is a pretty accepted and understood concept
