It feels like every CEO on earth thinks they need to adopt AI or fall behind, but they have no idea what to use AI for so they’re just ramming it into use cases that no one asked for.
I’m in tech, and yeah, while we actually do have a couple helpful (nothing revolutionary, just smoothes over some of the drudge work) use cases for Gen AI, we identified those use cases pretty quick and leadership’s been grasping for more ever since.
Your not wromg. The investors class want ai because that is what they belive will be the future. If the ceos don’t add then the investors pull out. Even when most feedback is negative, even woth ai companies saying they don’t have a path to profitability
I think it’s a suck cost thing at this point for a lot of investors.
Like, they need it to be a hyper growth market. They’ve had to many false starts in recent years, and this one seemed so promising to them. They poured so much fucking money in to building data centers for it. They can’t afford for it to turn out to just be a novelty with niche uses cases in specific fields. The entire US economy, top to bottom, is massively over leveraged on every front, if this doesn’t print money, there isn’t the capital needed for another big investing spree.
FTFY. To call them “regular” belies the fact that suffusion of money and the power over the wellbeing of others has, universally, rotted their humanity from the inside out, making it impossible for them to even imagine — let alone successfully predict — what a “regular” shmuck would consider a reasonable use-case for AI.

Yup, lets a pray for a crash
I was sitting in a meeting yesterday that basically was exactly this.
So yes. very much.
This is hardly the first, and definitely not the last corporate fad. We should have just about finished moving everything to the block chain by now.
It’s almost as if CEOs are just regular schmucks that fall prey to BS advertising.

Agreed. Overpaid, sociopathic and overly-powerful schmucks. But still schmucks.
