I have read the article (though I will admit, quite quickly). The author's definition for AI is by any means not the single one out there, as they outlined themselves. I disagree with the premise that this will be the job of the decade, and I disagree with the premise that it is inherently different from the rest of software as a service. This is a tool, that can be used to solve certain problems, I doubt there is a useful differentiation. That's my point of view, it is antagonistic to what is presented there, and I don't see why you think it departs from usefully commenting on the article.
