What is not AI?

Today, we have a lot of different technologies exist around us. Therefore, it is very common for us to misunderstand any other technology as AI. That's why, here we make clear the difference between what is AI and what is not AI.
As we know, any machine that has been trained with data and can make decisions/predictions on its own can be termed as AI.

AI is not just automation: AI means the use of own intelligence not just the automation.

A fully automatic washing machine can work on its own, but it requires human intervention to select the parameters of washing and to do the necessary preparation for it to function correctly before each wash, which makes it an example of automation, not AI.

An air conditioner can be operate remotely with the help of internet but still needs a human touch. This is an example of Internet of Things (IoT).

We also get to see a lot of projects which can automate our surroundings with the help of sensors. Here too, since the bot or the automation machine is not trained with any data, it does not count as AI.

We can also say that not all the devices which are "smart" in works are AI-enabled. For example, a TV does not become AI-enabled if it is a smart one.

Just as humans learn how to walk and then improve this skill with the help of their experiences, an AI machine too gets trained first using training data and then optimises itself according to its own experiences which makes AI different from any other technological device/machine.

AI is not magic: AI is a mathematical and logical algorithms not a magic.
