EDIT: To elaborate. AES does _not_ use IVs. It has no support for them whatsoever. It takes as input only a key and plaintext/ciphertext. This is in contrast to other block ciphers like Threefish which do.

AES, in most applications, has to be used in constructions that require IVs. But that's distinctly different. IVs are bolted onto AES.

"It is incorrect to say that AES does not use IVs." is patently false. It'd be like saying "It is incorrect to say that AES does not use tweaks."
