I'm asking genuinely: is this "AI" or is this "ML," because the latter terms appears more appropriate to me.
Machine learning has been a subset of artificial inteligence research for decades (like 4 at least).
From a technical perspective yeah, but from a colloquial manner AI and ML have been used interchangeably for years. An issue only made worse by AI now frequently being used to describe GenAI which, while ML, behaves in a manner where it's somewhat misleading to use AI/ML/Gen AI interchangeably.
Ai has begun to be used interchangeably with all kinds of automation. Not that I agree with it, but it's the current golden child.
