They're absolutely failing because the execs are hype-driven clowns who focus on the wrong metrics.

"Failing to drive rapid revenue growth", WTF. Leaving aside whether GenAI is a useful technology or not, it's never been a technology to "drive rapid revenue growth", just like Microsoft Office, or calculators, or a million other technologies.

This is all just a pipe dream from a clueless exec class that prioritises short-term profits and hoped that implementing a glorified autocorrect would make people flock en masse to their random product. Why would you think an AI chatbot in your online clothes shop would make me like your ill-fitting jeans any better, you overpaid monkey?

Maybe you could have hoped for employees to achieve a "5% productivity increase" or something mildly realistic, but no, your brain-eating slugs told you to shoehorn AI into everything and 👏We 👏Don't 👏Need👏AI👏Fucking👏Everywhere👏

I know I'm preaching to the choir but I needed the rant.

Are the other five percent just trained to do hyper specific tasks?

Its all hype and it only makes shit you dont want to look at anyway

Gartner got it right. AI is on its way down.
