I have an extra seat and didn't have any heat following me, you can assume I took Fury.

Don't say 'AI' pilot your drones, since real Artificial Intelligence's exist, and in some countries are considered legal citizens. Just say Pilot program so it's less confusing and politically correct in Shadowrun jargon.
He was using the right terminology. An A.I. went out to get him and bring him to the right location.
The pilot program on his bike went to go get him. Pilot programs are essentially fuzzy logic programs that drive cars and bikes for you. Most of them link with gridguide for free power to the car and advanced GPS and traffic management but it isn't required. They don't have much processing capability beyond controlling the car.
If he's using an agent to pilot the bike then it would require a very specialized (and unecessary) agent with a pilot program loaded. But since most if not all cars come with a pilot program, the agent is redundant.
In the shadowrun universe A.I.'s are sentient beings that exist only in the matrix. Essentially like a VR metahuman without the body, allowing them no only to pilot drones, but also hack, spoof, crash nodes and anything else a regular hacker can do. An A.I. is essentially an NPC (and a rare one at that), so having one to do your bidding is akin to slavery.
If one of our party members is an A.I. then I guess I misunderstood the sentence and will not metagame the secret, but from what I see, he mean pilot program, and would like it to say pilot program to avoid confusion. If the character is completely unaware of the existence of A.I.'s in the world then feel free to say it, just make it obvious you're not talking about the matrix entity kind.
