dcm, It's relatively commonly recognised that AI is a somewhat misleading umbrella term that covers a variety of different scientific and non-scientific projects.
In a new preprint, I articulate, defend, and illustrate a central scientific project for AI that is somewhat neglected or vaguely recognised, which I call AI-as-exploration (taking the cue from a recent paper by @olivia, @Iris et al).
