Oh, fair. To an extent, at least. If they had said these were ML processed samples, would you balk as hard at it?
That is, I'm willing to chalk up use of "AI" as a descriptor being an editorial choice. Agreed that it isn't impressive just because it is AI, but it does still seem to be a good use of computational power.
Why 'balking hard'? Just saying that this is trivial use of statistics, but for once it's intelligent use. Still, if the false positive rate is too high, the effect won't last long.
