I can't agree. Back in 2004-2006, I taught computer classes at a local tech college. One of the first things I would have my students do is have a chat with the then, "A-i.com chat bot", a very rudimentary program that would answer some basic questions, but sometimes without a lot of coherence. The difference between that AI and today's AI is a massive leap forward, and far more coherent/"smart".
It all depends how you are measuring AI.
It certainly flunks the Turing test in political matters.
The average college freshmen could do more thorough analysis.
