Having seen the code for a couple of "intelligent assistant" features: Yeah, basically a bunch of "if" statements. (The IA for the Apple Newton was a ton of special cases. It was clever, but certainly not 'intelligent').

Thus, the technology of AI has improved from a sea of spaghetti code that no human can understand, to a bunch of neural net weights that no human can understand. I love the march of progress. :-)
