From my position this narrowing of the term AI to refer only to ‘real intelligence’ has always seemed like little more than an attempt to control the narrative against an astonishingly successful trend of connectionist architectures doing incredible things. Nobody complained when Pac-Man's ghosts got called AI, but now it's political.

All of what I mentioned are neural networks.

You got a point there with the neural networks. Though I never considered the ghosts from Pac-Man to have an AI. And why are you framing this as a "control the narrative"/political argument?
