I like your taxonomy. But just to clarify: is the cruise control on my car "artificial intelligence?" Because a lot of dumb 15-year-old teenagers don't know they have to increase power while going up a hill, while my cruise control algorithm does.

My category for AI is based on "popular perception", not necessarily an actual comparison to what humans can or can't do. Most humans don't know how to multiply complex numbers, but that doesn't mean doing so demonstrates human-level intelligence and decision making.

In the specific case of cruise control, I don't think maintaining speed accurately is typically viewed as "difficult" for a computer today, so it would be deceptive to refer to as AI. 100 years ago that may have been different.
