The irony is companies are being forced to implement it. Like our board has told us we must have "AI in our product.". It's literally a solution looking for a problem that doesn't exist.

It's because automated trading bots trade companies whose names appear in headlines with the word AI upwards.

The stock market is an economic shitpost.

This just screams "The CEO read about it on linkedin while taking a dump and now feels it is vital to the company."

My boss's boss's boss asked for a summary of our roadmap. He read it, and provided his takeaways... 3 of the 4 bullet points were AI-related, and we never once mentioned anything about AI in what we gave him 😑 so I guess we're pivoting?
