There’s a stark difference in success rates between companies that purchase AI tools from vendors and those that build them internally.

Despite the rush to integrate powerful new models, about 5% of AI pilot programs achieve rapid revenue acceleration; the vast majority stall, delivering little to no measurable impact on P&L.

The research—based on 150 interviews with leaders, a survey of 350 employees, and an analysis of 300 public AI deployments—paints a clear divide between success stories and stalled projects.

    If you care about AI development you would care a lot about the entire industry getting wrecked and set back decades because a bursting bubble and lack of independent funding.

    This isn’t just about AI either, when an industry valued nearly half a trillion dollars crashes, it takes with it the ENTIRE FUCKING ECONOMY. I have lived through these bubbles before, this one is bigger and worse than any of them.

    You won’t get your AI waifus if you have no job and nobody is hiring developers for AI waifus.

        Okay but we’re talking about economics here, not the “tool” specifically. I think some people are so hung up on knee-jerk defensiveness of AI that they lose sight of everything but promoting it.

            I’m sorry if you hope so,

            Arguing that there’s an economic scheme threatening AI development and you translate it as “hope” that there is going to be an economy-destroying bubble burst, tells me I won’t get far in this conversation. Maybe figure out if there’s a less emotional/defensive path for looking at all this.
