Well, "not to be confused", but the same page says AAVE is just a dialect of AAE, so mostly not much of a difference, I think.

The difference here is mostly scope: AAE includes stuff like African-American Standard English (English as used by black people in more formal settings) and the written language, while AAVE refers only to the vernaculars.

Note that some don't even make this distinction, but I think that it's important.
