Read the article but I still think the criticism of the title is valid. The claim is that the way we talk about AI will be different in 5 years, not that AI will be dead. Likewise recommender systems, Neural Networks, and Statistical Learning are not certainly not dead. It's an abuse of a term to grab clicks.

I strongly disagree - especially because the title is itself a reference to "Big Data Will Be Dead In 5 Years" which itself talked about this same phenomenon, albeit for Data Engineering.

Titles are not arguments. Some people may want them to be, but they are not.

Engaging with a title just distracts a discussion from the core thesis of a post.
