I saw AI, and didn't really care for it. But then, the only Kubrick film I really like is A Clockwork Orange. Plus, I think it was sort of obvious which parts of the movie were Kubrick's, and which parts were Spielberg's.

I wasn't crazy about AI, either; the only reason I mention it is because I thought it had some interesting ideas on artificial life. I generally can't stand Kubrick because of his left-wing orientation, though I do like the first half of 2001 from a fx and musical viewpoint. I also really dislike what he did to The Shining, for reasons similar to what you and Jen are saying about Starship Troopers: virtually no relation to the book.
