Pretty sure I had one of these people accuse me of being in a cult because I criticized "AI" as just being a buzzword for LLM
More specifically it's marketing. "LLM" wouldn't have gained traction, but decades of the use of "AI" in science and fiction means it was there to capitalize on it since it was established.
If they are serious about either LLMs or AGI, then they'll use those acronyms. And know the difference - which many probably don't, and why they say "AI".
