But the meme is making the more extreme claim that no uses exist, so any counterexamples mean it's untrue. Not the best way of criticizing companies that don't know or care what a technology is good for imo.

Only if you take it literally instead of as a joke that is exaggerating for comedic effect.

That's difficult when there are lots of people who will say that and be serious about it. No way to know if it's hyperbole.

"AI" is a general term. Tech companies use "AI" more than chatbot so people can't talk about it as easily.

You know this and are just acting dumb to stand out with your contrarianism.

Government defunding NIH blood cancer research while building chatbot anime-girlfriend datahouses was in fact a bad thing, stop trying to act quirky and unique.
