What a weird title. They are completely 2 different, independent things. Just to be categorized with AI hype articles...

The missing context is that this article is part of their CES coverage. At the expo the huge theme was everyone putting AI in every fucking device they could. A subtler theme that didn't get as much attention was a bunch of new devices launched with Wifi 7 for the first time. So the headline was what was happening at the expo.

Also, one of these is a mere update hugging the tech plateau, the other is a disruptive hockey stick.

All news are for investors nowadays. Microinvestment runs the 2020s world.
