It's just a contract, not a philosophical treatise. We should be more worried about their goals and intent regarding what they plan to do with the technology. There will be plenty of time to debate the true merits of the term, and what threshold needs to be crossed before consciousness should enter into the discussion. The more pressing question, to me, is what are the limits of this current technological trajectory and what do we as a society need to prepare for to handle it? What they decide to name it will just be marketing term for a product. And without a solution to the model collapse problem, the biggest issue I see is how to filter the deluge of content. We're already on the other end of a firehose we largely have no control over. The Internet may have connected us, but most of us still have little idea how little control they possess or how targeted the content they consume really is.
