  They’re absolutely failing because the execs are hype-driven clowns who focus on the wrong metrics.

  “Failing to drive rapid revenue growth”, WTF. Leaving aside whether GenAI is a useful technology or not, it’s never been a technology to “drive rapid revenue growth”, just like Microsoft Office, or calculators, or a million other technologies.

  This is all just a pipe dream from a clueless exec class that prioritises short-term profits and hoped that implementing a glorified autocorrect would make people flock en masse to their random product. Why would you think an AI chatbot in your online clothes shop would make me like your ill-fitting jeans any better, you overpaid monkey?

  Maybe you could have hoped for employees to achieve a “5% productivity increase” or something mildly realistic, but no, your brain-eating slugs told you to shoehorn AI into everything and 👏We 👏Don’t 👏Need👏AI👏Fucking👏Everywhere👏

  Are the other five percent just trained to do hyper specific tasks?

    This is about as good as horoscope but funny “webassembly” on the way down, too bad, it could have been great, I’ve seen some cool stuff but technological remedy to platform walledgardenism will ALWAYS fail, you pay the toll, you bend the knee to the king or your head gets chopped off.

    Nobody will empower Apple users except Apple, and this soon will be the rule for every computer including PC, if you want to block ads you will have to jailbreak your bios and that will be physically impossible.

      Once the DRM crap gets that bad, I’m going to have to get a RISC-V laptop.
