The insane AI push is purely driven by fear of being left behind.

No one is actually stopping to ask whether it is all worth it.

Yeah, the people is charge are gobsmackingly stupid.

You would fire any employee for this level of incompetence. For some strange reason meritocracy doesn't exist at the leadership level anymore when that is the most important place for it.

Every company still investing in AI knowing their is no return should be broken up and disbanded at this point for gross financial negligence.
