You said:

Also, the newest name for Photoshop is "AI". If someone is airbrushed, it's called "AI".

3 seperate things, each different.

Airbrushing is not the same as Photoshop and AI is not the same as Photoshop.

Actual airbrushing is an actual physical process. 'Photoshopping' is digital manipulation.

Digitally retouching an image is sometimes called 'airbrushing', named after the old physical process, which is where some confusion can occur.

Photoshop, on its own, cannot generate a new image on command via a few prompts like an AI imaging programme can.
