I don't really get the "what we are calling AI isn't actual AI" take, as it seems to me to presuppose a definition of intelligence.
Like, yes, ChatGPT and the like are stochastic machines built to generate reasonable sounding text. We all get that. But can you prove to me that isn't how actual "intelligence" works at it's core?
And you can argue that actual intelligence requires memories or long running context, but that's trivial to jerry-rig a framework around ChatGPT that does exactly that (and has been done already a few times).
Idk man, I have yet to see one of these videos actually take the time to explain what makes something "intelligent" and why that is the definition of intelligence that they believe is the correct one.
Whether something is "actually" AI seems much more a question for a philosophy major than a computer science major.
The problem with calling these tools AI is not really an argument from definitions. The argument at its core is saying that the general public brings a lot of assumptions to something that's being called "AI", which aren't true but benefit investors.
Like, all those stories of chatgpt citing fake studies and fake case law blew people's minds. If you know what chatgpt is (a fancy predictive text algorithm) these are pretty unsurprising events, but a lot of people had heard "AI" and applied their own associations onto its perceived capabilities, which was exactly the point of calling it "AI" instead of "LLM"
