They're related, but they're not the same thing: E.g. when analysing a JS-like language and you see "x = a + b" with raw memory content a = {0x1,0x2}, b = {0x3} you get x = {0x4,0x5,0x13,0x23} - because you can't tell if that + is a string concatenation or numerical addition.

Of course when analysing program code, you might want to carry type information with you. The math behind AI allows to combine basically any domain to a single domain without losing all the nice properties of the Galois connection. But usually you get away with tracking multiple domains simultaneously, since that's also a lot easier from an engineering perspective (someone has to understand and maintain that code for a few decades).

Edit: I recommend following funcDropShadow's advice.
