Machine learning is only one AI technique. AI research has been going on since the 1950’s. They’ve gone through many different approaches with widely varying results. Symbolic and logic based AI, expert systems, minimax, Monte Carlo tree search, and many different machine learning approaches.
They’re clearly talking about machine learning in the pic, though. And in my experience, so is practically everyone else when it comes to AI discourse these days.
Clearly? What’s so clear about that? I doubt the person quoted in the story even knows what machine learning is, let alone the differences between LLMs, CNNs, and older techniques such as expert systems (the AI in video games) or fuzzy logic (the AI in fancy rice cookers).

She’s talking about art and writing.
And laundry and dishes. And she doesn’t know that LLMs and CNNs can’t do those tasks. She’s talking about AI as an entire discipline.
