The problem is it is just ML all the way down… I mean even AlphaFold used transformer models, I thought.

At least LLMs act somewhat like an AI rather than just working in a singular hyper specific domain like so many ML projects that can only do one extremely specific thing. You're right it's still /just/ ML underneath but I'm still happy AI as a term is shrinking a little.
