AI is getting billions in investment. Every single company out there is pushing employees to use it. Most brands have OKRs of shoving AI into their services.

And yet a chat box, removing objects in pictures or generating mediocre images is all they ever achieve.

Nobody goes beyond that. It's always the same as ChatGPT but with a modified system prompt. It's always image generation. Oh look we spent half of the quarter's budget but now our website displays an AI generated summary on top of the already easy to read information!

Which to me is irrefutable proof that AI is a useless money sink. Every company out there battling to grab your attention with AI, billions of dollars, market pressure and it's still useless?
