Not sure what you mean by action sequences being "done" CGI. Some action sequences are actually CGI but most are just composites of filmed sequences with cables and other such items digitally removed. There has been no redefining of what constitutes a stunt that I know of.
Follow Ups:
I have heard actors or directors say stuff like. "That was me (or some actor) and not CGI." The emphasis being that it was "real"--a stunt.
"There has been no redefining of what constitutes a stunt that I know of."
Silly little man. The world is not limited to what you know.

OK...... Not sure that this vague generality really means much. Got any specifics? I am sure sometimes they are refering to things like digital compositing and digfital removal of cables and the like. that is not actually CGI. Even if an actor calls it CGI it isn't.

Never said it was. Do you know what it means when someone says "that I know of?" Hey if you have some information on the subject fill me in.
It was a response to your usual shitty attitude.
You are just another pseudo-intelectual pretentious art house movie fanboy trying to get a sesne of respect on ::sigh:: an internet forum. You are pathetic. It must be quite frustrating to have me here to call you on your B.S.
Not really. I think enough people here can tell the difference between factual posts and yours, which consists of nothing but personal attacks. Only people with nothing else to offer resort to personal attacks.
Trolls like you go a dime a dozen on the Internet.
I don't see anybody coming to your defense here or anywhere else. I think you are pretty much on your own with your opinions.
" Only people with nothing else to offer resort to personal attacks."
You might want to take a good hard look in the mirror.
Well, maybe not. It might depress you.
I never understood the purpose of emoticons until I ran into you. You do know my first post was being ironic? It was motivated by the John Wayne post here.
But mostly it was motivated by silly actors who tell David Letterman, or whoever, that they did their own stunts when world-class athlete Jet Li would never do stunts, or take credit for it. Jet does martial arts. The reason Jet doesn't do stunts is just because he is a world-class athlete and reasonably successful actor. He doesn't have to. Stuntmen are at the bottom of the food chain. Why would a reasonably successful actor strive to become a stuntman?
As for definition? There's none. The closest to a definition stunt is whenever the actor is being doubled. Injuries (like a broken leg during the shooting of Once Upon a Time in China) have forced Jet to use stuntmen/doubles many times.
