that heavily depends on how you define "intelligence". if you insist on "think, reason and behave like a human", then no, we don't have "Artificial Intelligence" yet (although there are plenty of people that would argue that we do). on the other hand if you consider the ability to play chess or go intelligence, the answer is different.

Honestly I would consider BFS/DFS artificial intelligence (and I think most introductory AI courses agree). But yea it's a definition game and I don't think most people qualify intelligence as purely human-centric. Simple tasks like pattern recognition already count as a facet of intelligence.

I forget the exact quote or who said it, but the gist is that a species cannot be considered sapient (intelligent) on an interplanetary/interstellar stage until they have discovered Calculus. I prefer to use that as my bar for the sapience of those around me as well.
