I wasn't. I was talking from an 'engineering pragmatism' point of view :)
My iPhone's keyboard isn't sentient, yet it still manages a reasonable approximation to 'guess' what I'm trying to type.
Amazon's database isn't sentient, yet it still manages to suggest reasonable things based on its 'knowledge' of what I've bought before.
These are just algorithms running over input data of course, but they make a jolly good job of approximating a task which (at first sight) might appear to be something which requires some sort of human behind them to 'understand' what is going on.
