I side with you but on the other hand: this is how it works to get attention by those who aren't affiliated with computer science and AI.
I am totally annoyed as well and put any buzzwords in my personal bs filter. Java was revolutionary, the Apple I etc. ;)
On the other hand I see progress! AI enriched press releases balance buzzwords and information way better than marketing of large companies did before AI.
I remember throwing away an instruction for an electronic toothbrush away because - I won't mention the name but have a look at the upper tier - instead of putting something like "Turn toothbrush on, choose mode by pressing..." it read "Take your super awesome premium masterpiece using patented technology for the first time in human life now available to you by us. Move your finger over to the innovative sensory surface, that uses material from rocket scientists and world leading designers".
No joke. These were text blocks and repeated - 30 pages for one compact one.
The toothbrush is top notch, except for the instructions.
