I guess you haven't work at a large corporation that thinks it's a tech company then. I worked at a large insurance company and, while I was there, machine learning and AI were the strongest buzzwords going. Blockchain was just starting to emerge. If you were doing any project at all you could get automatic thumbs up from senior level execs if you name-dropped machine learning or AI. They'd enthusiastically nod their heads upon hearing it. I think this was supposed to convey "great application of this technology I understand!" but once you saw through that it really meant "I've heard of that!"
