It already has. Autocorrect has gone to compete shit. Online news reports have become nothing but buzz words. Internet searches have become useless.
All of these are results of companies switching from simple algorithms that were already proven to work just fine to "artificial" intelligence which is practically useless at this point for anything other than deep fakes or eldritch horror images.
Because it was already established. The algorithm was already used to my word choice and was easily able to figure out what word I'm trying to use (I use swipe to text) and now I have to manually type out words I use regularly because the new ai system doesn't know what the fuck I want.
It's like making a better mousetrap. Don't fix what isn't fuckin broken.
As far as I know autocorrect isn't using actual AI yet.
