Yes and no. "AI" has been a marketing term over a decade now, it's a vague statement which is pretty much mandatory to get funding.
In theory, I agree with you, automated navigation of boats seems like a good fit for machine learning.

Technically over a decade, but feels like that's an understatement. In the 1940s some people called a machine to play NIM as "Artificial Intelligence". People talked about opponent AI in checkers games before most of us were born. Certainly by the 80s using "AI" to describe the manipulations of enemy characters was all-in.
