I'm not sure to understand your point on what the product can actually do: this whole blog entry is about sticking the marketing claims to reality, what exactly the product does, and not make vague promises because it uses AI. Basically, outside of their tone, you seem to me 100% in agreement with the FTC's message here.

You are right in that the tone/medium of the message is the problematic issue. But, even outside that, claiming something is/has/uses AI is practically meaningless. It's not a concrete claim, so consumers of said product aren't damaged by such claim. A claim of risk free returns of 50% causes harm. A false claim of curing cancer causes harm. So no, I'm not in agreement with it. The FTC should find more important things to spend the time of their 1100 people on, especially when they don't even seem to understand the topic at hand.
