How stupid do you have to be to believe that only 8% of companies have seen failed AI projects? We can't manage this consistently with CRUD apps and people think that this number isn't laughable? Some companies have seen benefits during the LLM craze, but not 92% of them. 34% of companies report that generative AI specifically has been assisting with strategic decision making? What the actual fuck are you talking about?

....

I don't believe you. No one with a brain believes you, and if your board believes what you just wrote on the survey then they should fire you.

Yup. And I'm unwilling to be the QC in a coding assembly line, I want competent peers who catch things before I do.

But my point isn't that AI actively makes individuals dumber, it's making people in general dumber. I believe that to be true about a lot of technology. In the 80s, people were familiar with command-line interfaces, and jumping to some coding wasn't a huge leap, but today, people can't figure out how to do a thing unless there's an app for it. AI is just the next step along that path, soon, even traditionally competent industries will be little more than QC and nobody will remember how the sausage is made.

If they can demonstrate that they know how the sausage is made and how to inspect a sausage of packages, I'm fine with it. But if they struggle to even open the sausage package, we're going to have problems.
