Because people call it an AI instead of a bunch of related trained predictive algorithms? If the other things were happening (labour discipline, art theft, using a gallon of water to run a bad google search) but people were using whatever term you wanted, what would actually change?
Like, I'm not saying it's wrong to be annoyed by these companies ad copy, and there's absolutely people out there who think "AI" is more human than their employees, it's just a huge amount of time and energy wasted over a relatively minor part of the whole relationship. Even this 3 reply exchange here is probably too much.
