Yes, using AI is ludicrous. It brings nothing to the table that wasn't already being done. This is just part of the AI craze to get people excited about aliens.

No. There are definitely areas where ML can help. We have models that are known to be good at classification and that also generalise reasonably well. These models can and should be used to speed up the "anomaly detection" in a large amount of data. These models are also better at the task than manually defined "traditional" algorithms.
