I would call it "Engineered (as machine-made trustworthy) Mathematics": you have results but nobody undrstands them but they were not produced by humans.
Despite that, people use them. In that sense, similar to the Finite Elements method. But the tools (statements) are machined like any other tool (screwdriver).
Similar to microprocessors in your example. But about statements.
Science is not about results, it is about the transmission of knowledge. So long as those AI-"sciences" are just inside AI, they are "engineering", not science.
I am not dismissing engineering (it moves the world we live in), just trying to clarify what science is.
Applied fluid dynamics works like that: noone has ever really "verified" that the finite-element method applied to some specific model does converge
Wow, I did not know this and -despite its drawbacks, like not being able to install apps from the Apple App store- this seems like a great way to have a powerful dumb-phone.
Notice that the space rule is not so in Spanish (the RAE ---the Spanish Royal Academy--- states in its rules that it must be separated from the main text on both sides but not from the explanation).
Mathematics is a language for humans, not just for machines. We may agree to let machines "do their thing" for as long as they want but to what purpose? Just creating "results"? What is a mathematical result by itself?
Unless, of course, we are willing to give machines the responsibility of building bridges. Subject on which I do not have a clear opinion yet.
But just hard drives (or whatever) filled with bytes representing strings representing nothing any human will ever understand... I am not for it (as of now). There are much more important problems to solve.
"Beauty" is something I cannot define. "Elegance", as I use it, is the use of tools as precisely as possible. It is a technical term, whereas "beauty" I cannot define.
