But is the claim of AI not that it can produce outcomes on its own through some sort of machine learning using different input? If it requires a team people anyway, then what is the point in calling it AI?

AI does not operate independently of people. That has never been the goal. The goal is to use what we know about intelligence to make new tools that help us take society in a more productive and automated direction. In this case, humans still need to be the ones who train AI to begin with. A developed AI only needs an operator/maintainer.

"AI" is just a buzzword for machine learning algorithms that take large, large, large data sets and run over then multiple times to create an interactive algorithm based on what it was taught. The people in the article are the ones doing trivial tasks for the data sets, like labeling images so a neural network could learn what a bird is, or something along those lines.
