I suppose you could look at this 2 ways: either, when we talk about the state of AI, we could say that, yes, we have it, but only this one small part that kinda works ok; or (the more traditional route) would be to say that AI doesn’t exist until all of the constituent technologies have been both developed and assembled.

Obviously, we know which one the marketing departments of many companies choose.
