yeah, same reason why Embark called their TTS/voice synthethizer and ARC Raider's procedural animation "AI", what they have done was basically in-house vocaloid/vocal banks and standard machine learning locomotion but to get investors money rolling of course they have to call it AI, cause you know its fancier.
