Asetek, in partnership with Fabric8Labs, has announced a new AI-optimized cold plate that has been built with ECAM, a room-temperature 3D metal printing process that purportedly improves build quality compared to outgoing manufacturing techniques.

I spy with my eye an Asus ROG logo...
Fabric8Labs website has a neat looking example on display.

You definitely cannot do a wave shape like that in a single piece with traditional methods.

I feel like I've been transported back to the late 90s, only this time instead of everything being named "NextGen", it's "AI-"

At least in this case they actually seem to be claiming to have used AI. The pdf doesn't explain but the asetek website at least claims to use AI:

• Now let’s be clear: obviously the cold plate itself is not “artificially intelligent.” However, we did leverage AI to optimize our new cold plate. This means we have employed a sophisticated AI simulation tool to create the cold plate architecture.​
• This results in lower temperatures and, consequently, better performance for your PC. The initial AI optimized cold plate design can deliver 2.3C/100W improvement over current Gen8 AIOs.​
