On the one hand, I'm very sympathetic to the argument that "AI" is an over-hyped buzzword that is rapidly losing all meaning, if it ever had any (beyond being a combination of science-fiction and an academic discipline from the 1950s)
On the other hand though, I'm building a feature where LLMs help a user build a SQL query using an English-language question and I need to decide what label to put on that button, it's hard to come up with anything that's as clear as "Use AI to write this query"
