From the article:

Importantly, routine bloodwork and clinical tools – including ... hs-CRP [among other tests] ... – showed no correlation with the presence of coronary inflammation and failed to identify which patients had inflamed arteries.

This is one of the things that makes me a little skeptical of their score. If it's accurate, there should be a positive correlation with known biomarkers. (I see you made a similar observation elsewhere.)

In their paper they actually find an inverse correlation with hs-CRP, which disappeared when removing two patients who were sick. So I wonder if the sample size being small is partly driving this.

Is this a positive thing? I read it as the AI results not correlating with test data...
