Fair enough. I still think this semantic differentiatioin between AI and SI makes no sense unless someone comes up with a new way of creating such an SI and explaining how he can make it. Yes, people write articles about it. They get paid for it. Doesn´t mean it makes sense.
" unless someone comes up with a new way of creating such an SI and explaining how he can make it"
The articles I shared answer that question. Of the articles in question, those by IBM and SYNTHETIC INTELLIGENCE | FUTURE OF AI AND TECHNOLOGY are scientific. They are not mere opinions.
Does all this make sense? Well, I don't want to get into relativity. My interest was in passing on information about technology, not questioning whether or not it makes sense.
