I would say that the Auto Attendant function, used to allow people to select
who they want to talk to, is a subset of IVR, which more generically allows
the person calling to retrieve information or to control the operation of a
computer or telephone switch.

Are IVR and "Auto Attendant" interchangeable terms? They both do the
"Press
1 for" thing. Sales is asking me how to word it and I've always used
both
terms interchangeably.
