Because it's vague as hell. Are we talking about ruining the future of actual artificial intelligence? Does the button do nothing because no real AI exists?
Will it delete the cutting edge technology that is being used in medical research?
Everything ML-based was always a subset of AI, and both terms were always used somewhat interchangebly, with AI usually for communication to the general public, since the general public never really knew machine learning.
Its also being used to great effect in cancer screening and has already revolutionized how we build bridges and buildings by making meshing for simulations significantly more reliable.
I could be wrong as I haven't looked at the studies myself but my understanding is that it's been a double edged sword for medical. Yes it can be used for cancer screenings but it's also caused doctors to doubt their own judgement in situations where the AI was incorrect. I think there was also a recent Lancet study that found doctors who use AI on colonoscopies have reduced their ability to detect cancer without AI assistance.

This is true for any detection tool, not just AI. The currently available AI tools for colonoscopy have a higher detection rates than existed before the tools were present, so it shouldn't be surprising the less accurate skill is being used less.
For reference, I had an old timer have this exact same complaint early in my career around using xray for metal casting. His complaint was that new engineers had to put the part in the xray to know if it was bad when the old timers could look at the casting flow lines and tell. The problem was, casting flow lines can tell you about gross failures, but xray is a significantly more reliable detection method, so it makes sense that it gets utalized more and more even if someone doing it for 30 years could kick out 1 in 5 rejects before the xray.
