In my opinion the main difference is the itemization.Luden's is core for assassin Ahri whereas Rylai's (arguably) one of the cores for mage Ahri.The assassin playstyle excels on making picks with your high burst/one shottting someone with a perfect timed charm (sometimes even without charm.) whereas mage ahri you're not gonna have as much BURST (this is the key difference) but you'll still have some great over the time damage and the utility=kiting.Well Rylai's is not considered as a core item on Ahri for most players I know that but to me it is a must for mage style.

So for assassin Ahri MY BUILD usually looks like : Boots,Morello,Luden's,Lichbane,Rabadon,Void yep full glasscanon you're trusting your mobility and movespeed to survive with this build you're gonna have an amazing burst.

For mage Ahri : Boots,Morello,Rylai's,Rabadon,Void either Abbsysal or Zhonya or another offensive item depends on the situtation.(The purchase order for both builds is also situtational.)You're gonna have less burst but way better kiting and survivability.

Now one last thing is that ofcourse you can make picks and one shot someone with mage Ahri too but my point is that burst is the key word for assassin style kite is the key word for the mage style.The definition of an assassin style play can be different for you or someone else ofc. this topic is open to interpretation.
