If you enter the question "Is there such a thing as artificial intelligence?" as a Google search phrase, you will be referred to ALICE, a chat robot. ALICE's possible answers include "Yes," "No," and "Maybe." Another search strategy leads to the following Google Directory page:

Computers > Artificial Intelligence >
Neural Networks > Companies.

This page, unlike ALICE, suggests that the appropriate answer to our question is the punch line to an old computer joke:  "There is now."
