That is so a genre or idiom of the current AI age. Why? I think because AIs live in language. They don't live somewhere else. So they have to exclude all the language network of things it's not in order to focus themselves on the thing it is. If they were more subconscious/symbolic like us, they could just not say that. But because their words, create their words, etc - more than us - they have to use this construction, to exclude the gigantic amount of stuff that whatever you're talking about is not.

What do y'all think?
