Do you even know what that is? This whole "AI" stuff that is actually ML is messing with people's heads and while ML is AI it's not AI in the sense that AI is defined as ML. No, it's a broader term. ML is only one instance. But no, it is AI. I'm not the one that's reforming the creatures, the computer is, therefore it's indeed AI.
And plus you just disproved what you said... You said it's a human or creature or whatever and if it's not controlled by an actual person then it has to be AI...
