The average anti-ai zealot only know about Diffusion and Large Language models because they once used ChatGPT for 15 minutes, read some memes and are now an expert on how AI is ruining society.
To be fair, the sloppier side of AI has a much more direct effect on society than niche scientific and engineering applications, but I get what you're after.
Oh yeah, most people see AI as 'the thing that has made search completely unusable' and not 'The thing that has solved protein folding'.
It's like the Internet is full of cavemen who are screaming and throwing rocks at a fire while, elsewhere, others are building jet turbines and combustion engines.
