AI makes it quicker and cheaper to ship something. The problem with most companies is shipping the wrong thing.

VCs hope that with AI they can have a larger portfolio, shipping more things, so that by sheer luck, one is a success. That's why many employees are critical of the AI hype while VCs and C-level love it. The whole discussion about maintainability doesn't even register on the radar, employees vs. VCs and C-level are operating at a different definition of "failure".
