That 12 percent is either full of shit, they were running things like garbage to begin with, or the shitstorm just hasn't hit them yet.
I actually think around 10% success rate sounds about right here. There are niches where this tech works well, but it's being applied everywhere indiscriminately. So it makes sense that most deployments fail, but a small percentage actually finds the right niche.
I'd say it's more likely that 95% were greedily chasing hype, went a little too all-in, and 7% of them got lucky it didn't burn them.
