If you actually care about improving things rather than just getting on the same bandwagon as everyone else, it's vital to have a nuanced and informed opinion, otherwise you're not going to have the impact you hope for. Neither AI nor ML is new, and the only reason you are upset about it now is because tech companies are shoving it in your face to try and be relevant. But the things you actually see advertised is a fraction of what's going on. We can't just "get rid of AI", even if we'd want to.
