It’s also a joke how poorly most companies are adopting AI. For many companies there have been meaningful improvements in software over the last few years that have been ignored completely and suddenly these same companies want to step over a bunch of stairs at once (insert meme) and do AI-buzzword-everything.

It doesn’t work like that

The metal fab company i work for is still using software from the 80's. The same with our state unemployment office lol.
