Something doesn't need to be full human-level general intelligence to be considered as falling under the "AI" rubric. In the past people spoke of "weak AI" versus "strong AI" and/or "narrow AI" vs "wide AI" to reflect the different "levels" of AI. These days the distinction that most people use is "AI" vs "AGI" which you could loosely (
very loosely) speaking think of as somewhat analogous to "weak and/or narrow AI" vs "strong, wide AI".
