Not just marketing, that’s the term it’s always been called. Plug a bunch of parameters into a non-deterministic model and you’ve got an AI, at least by what seems to be the common definition of the term.

“AI” used to mean “whatever we don’t fully understand yet”. A lot of processes have walked the path from “fantasy” to “AI” to “algorithm”. Doesn’t need to be non-deterministic, the original tic-tac-toe playing software was “AI” at the time.
Until we get some AGI, the term “AI” will remain a moving technological target, and a static marketing target.
