This part struck me:

"boosts data transmission and data processing speed, especially in AI applications"

How is this better for "AI" than it would be for any other general computing task? Looks like the AI-crazed execs had a go at this press release.

Sometimes EXECS want AI oriented products. So every product development team adds that their product serve AI too. Just to get attention to their product .

Probably the case, but I'm not losing sleep over it.

Wasn't that long ago, when I would see the word "blockchain," at least once, in every pitch deck.

what other general computing task leverages the wide bandwidths that optical transceivers provide as well as AI?

I get that AI washing is annoying, but this seems like such a petty thing to be mad at.
