Does "True" AI Already Exist?

Artificial Intelligence is probably the greatest technological achievement in history. It's subjective, of course, but I've been obsessed with technology ever since I was a kid, and while I'm sure there are many technical advances I am unaware of, AI, or machine learning, surpasses them all. An exception could perhaps be made for the invention of language or perhaps the wheel, however I doubt few other things will have such a profound effect on the human species. AI has been a stable component of contemporary culture for multiple generations now. From time traveling machines hell-bent on destroying humanity to friendly and lovable robots adventuring through space, we've anthropomorphized machines in preparation for what we all know is coming.
