Laundromat thoughts: is it really Artificial Intelligence? Would "Authoritarian Intervention" be more accurate based on how it is being forced on people?

I mean it doesn't roll off the tongue, but it is far more accurate when considering the new catchphrases from Big Tech:

"Surveillance isn't incompatible with privacy when AI is involved."
"AI is inevitable, there is no going back."
"Technology is dead as an industry. If you worked in technology in the past, you work in AI now."
"AI is the future. If you don't embrace it, you'll be left behind."
