Anything and everything is AI/ML today. A few years ago we used to have a product which would keep track of inventory on display shelf (basically how many items are on shelf) and inventory in backroom and based on that math would generate an alert to the store owner if the number of items in backroom were lesser than a threshold. Basic math. That same product is being sold today without a single line of code change as an AI/ML product.

In short, all this AI/ML stuff is just buzzword, ultimately the work you will do in almost all these companies is regular run of the mill work nowhere related to ML or AI

This sounds like plain “false advertising“ to me. Besides — wouldn’t an inventory tracking platform that has actual real AI/ML capabilities end up eventually replacing its “unintelligent” equivalents since it’ll most likely be a better hence more valuable product?

Yeah right - come here and whine at HN about how rich get richer without even knowing anything about the issue at hand; hoping to score some HN points.
