OP wants AI to change the music. They just don't want the new EULA added to the mix.

Some parts of voice assistants used AI techniques other parts didn’t. Calling the whole thing AI is like calling Office 365 AI, it’s too vague to be useful. The most reliable parts are using dictation to interact with the preprogrammed bits.

Also, early attempts at dictation wasn’t considered AI, instead a machine learning etc was found to be useful so it’s been tossed into the AI bucket rather arbitrarily.
