Other than inflated tech stocks making money off the promise of AI, what real economic impact has it actually had? I recall plenty of articles claiming that companies are having trouble actually manifesting the promised ROI.
Most of the value of AI for our organization is the hype itself providing the activation energy, if you will, to make these projects happen. The value added by the AI systems per se has been minimal.
(YMMV but that’s what I’m seeing at the non-tech bigco I’m at—it’s pretty silly but the checks continue to clear so whatever)
