IMHO that broad conception is part of the abuse of the concept up to the point that another adjective (general, 🤷🏼♂️) must be added to recover its original intention... I have problems to recognise "inteligence" in a boosted decision tree... machine learning techniques looks to me much more appropriate as a concept
Yes, I'd say all of machine learning is a subset of the broader field of AI, which just pretty much means "solving problems in an intelligent way", and it has always been like this. Look up how people talked about Deep Blue, for instance. They certainly called the program an AI and gave it agency.
This is also a good read: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_artificial_intelligence
