My one genuine use case is that even with troubleshooting time allowed, I think using AI to write scripts tends to be faster than doing it on my own from scratch.
Anything else at work feels like me going out of my way trying to find use cases to justify management demands to brag about being an „AI-forward“ company.

I will argue there’s a non tangible value to AI. Being able to transcribe meetings and get summaries means I can get back to doing three other people’s work faster

Good! Hopefully this bubble pops soon so consumer electronics can come down in price.

When these stocks come crashing down to earth, I wonder whether they’ll try to paint a narrative of “ugh it’s the general economy and tariffs that did this to us!”, and not the fact that they’re selling rainbows and unicorn farts
They’d only ever see ROI if they started replacing jobs en masse, but the technology isn’t there yet and the free market wouldn’t promote it unless services and products become substantially cheaper in the process

That’s because ai cannot yet do what people can do.
Early adoption always equals losses.
Put another way, the second mouse gets the cheese.

In a meeting just now, a manager said we’re going to have to have several projects using AI, with the reason being „Because you wouldn’t now play Wimbledon with wooden rackets.“ Okay, but tennis used newer tech racquets because there was actual proof it improved the game. Where is the proof that AI provides real world benefits? Right here CEOS show no benefits.
Wimbledon also requires wearing all white and playing on clay. Does that mean we’re going to work outdoors, on clay, and wear white? And if it rains we get to stop working?

Yeah no shit. There are some great use cases for it, but you can’t just expect to throw it into everything and expect great results for cheaper than competent people. LLMs hallucinate and make tons of mistakes, so you’re spending the same amount of time delivering something, except more time is spent fixing and verifying what the AI spat out vs just doing it yourself. Except now you have to pay for expensive AI subscriptions which means you can’t hire more competent employees.

I use it more and more but only because I’m a senior manager and my company laid off everyone below me… so without someone to delegate, I’m forced to use AI to take care of the more mundane things I would’ve normally delegated to junior staff. It’s dumb.

> 56% of CEOs say it hasn’t produced any cost or revenue benefits.
I assume that means 44% say it has? Which is still significant

Company says use AI, but don’t put any company info into it. WTF am I supposed to do with it? I just argue with it, telling ChatGPT that I heard Claude was talking shit about it and asking what it’s going to do about it.

The problem is that it’s overused. It can give some benefits in specific scenarios, but everyone is trying to achieve magic with it, and it’s just not there.

A good tool sold as all encompassing billion dollar miracle!
It’s disaster of great and delusional expectations, not of the technology. CEOs, CTO and tech guru selling snake oil deserve a whammy!!
Language model is for language, not for logic. It works great for language related applications.

These morons have convinced the totally not fascist regime that they are gonna make billions but the reality is they are just gonna take billions, make a bunch of worthless datacentes that will end up being used by the totally not fascist regime to serve big brother type content. They already got the scumbags hooked with CP via grok and LLMs so they are training the people who will serve cambridge analytical data back at to the unwashed masses as a form of control.
rinse repeat.

If it is the majority, the industry crash would be underway. There are still plenty of suckers buying in until at least 2028.

Every time someone implements an AI solution as a proof on concept people always ask, but what is the cost? Because the amount of additional cloud services needed to do things is pretty high. The real winners here will be the cloud providers

They still can’t quite figure out how to monetize something almost nobody on the ground wants.

I get e-mails from my company begging me to use Co-Pilot more. We have internal surveys going out with questions „have you recieved the proper training? do you need a license?“, etc. They’re desperate.
mrwobblez on
AI driven cost savings are almost antithetical to AI driven revenue gains. If all companies laid off 50% of their staff driven by AI, everyone’s revenue would plummet because nobody has income to spend anymore.

It can be useful as a tool. Can be. However, it has been overhyped to the extreme as a silver bullet for every single issue facing corporate America, and it’s just not. It’s a solution desperate for a problem.

The thing about the Ai hype train is whether it accomplished it’s goals of becoming AGI and replaces people in the work force or the bubble bursts we will still lose. Either lose your jobs or the global economy collapses while the companies who caused the mess are bailed out by our governments

They haven’t put the AI in a blockchain. That’s the issue.
AI is a useful tool but it is mostly just an excuse for layoffs and outsourcing
WildBlueYonder01 on
I’m sorry, but I keep seeing a plethora of articles like this but I have found Ai to be tremendously transformative, impactful, and a huge cost savings to our company.
It’s a revolutionary technology that will lead to huge change; I loath this narrative of the entire class of technology being deemed to be crap because internal buyers do not know how to procure the right solution.

Yes but what about share price returns?

Should’ve tried replacing CEOs, could’ve saved billions.
