Artificial intelligence (AI) has already transformed how we work and communicate.
Has it?
Probably wrote at least parts of the article.
Can we stop calling it AI?
Yes, I have because it isn't.
It's LLMs and Machine Learning, though 'learning' is a misnomer so probably better to call it LLMs
probably not, in the same way that your grandma calls a video chat a facetime or your representative might call the internet a series of tubes
AI is the default word for any kind of machine magic now
Machine spirits. We really are on the path to Warhammer 40k
Marketers explicitly and silently rebranded AI to AGI, a term that I think was literally just made up. I think they should have been reversed, llma deserve a new term, but not AI.
But you see that wasn't the problem. The problem was that they knew some new term would fall flat. They wanted investors frothing at the mouth - so they just changed the definition of AI to make that happen.

Firstly, all words and terms are made up.
Secondly, no it wasn't made up recently, it was first used in 1997: https://ai.stackexchange.com/questions/20231/who-first-coined-the-term-artificial-general-intelligence
could? Lol.
subverted or working as intended?
As intended, but you gotta make it sound good for the headlines
