A machine is IQ0 but controllable, in an ultra tech setting you may control machines with effective IQ0 through neural connection, same with magic or psi powers vs a creature with IQ0 and no protection against control.

Yes, but you dont use the Mind School of Magic to control a toaster, you use Techno Magic. There's a reason for those being different schools - just like you use Plant Magic to control an oak, and not Mind.
You cant "brainwash" a machine, but you can reprogramme it. Nevertheless, those still are highly different skills, and it makes no sense to use one for the other
