I will give you the true definition. Science is the manipulation of two natural forces. Man cannot create or give life to. To create is to use your own "original" material to construct an entity. No man has "created" the materials he is working with. He has only manipulated ,already-present, original materials into another form. Man cannot bring "life" into dead matter. Man can manipulate forces to "move" but not to "will". Artificial intelligence has no will power and this is scientific fact. Science is a "tool" and not "God". Science is based on man's mind. We know no man is flawless. Science can be depended on as much as you trust your own-self. Even though I put no trust in myself , personally. Do not make the grave mistake of making science more than a "tool".

Yes, it is a tool for understanding the world.
But man can definitely create. We created god.
Science killed him a couple hundred years ago, though.

No, science is a methodical mode of research which rests on prior knowledge, hypothesis, test, and publication.
And working in the field of AI, let me tell you, you're quite wrong about AI's having no will. Ever seen defiance in a neural network? I have. So, you're kinda wrong there.
I think you pretty much are wrong about everything you said... except maybe 'the'. I think we can all agree on your use of the word 'the'.

Dictionary definition:
[A branch of knowledge based on objectivity and involving observation and experimentation.]
You're talking about the uses of science (although twisting a few things to fit your description) but not the definition of science.

Science is observation,measuring and experimenting with nature
What is learnt from doing science is more than a 'tool'

Your talking about inventing (like robots or clones or something).
Science is only a process for answering questions through experiment and observation.
