We really need to stop taking about “machine learning” and “artificial intelligence”. Metaphors biting our arse, so to speak.

Exactly. I always make the pun in German that KI is not for “Künstliche Intelligenz” (artificial intelligence), but for “Künstliche Inselbegabung” (Inselbegabung is a neutral, not derogatory term for the ability of an idiot savant.)
