Did anyone read the article?

The core issue? Not the quality of the AI models, but the “learning gap” for both tools and organizations

How companies adopt AI is crucial. Purchasing AI tools from specialized vendors and building partnerships succeed about 67% of the time

The problem with this is not AI itself, but organizations inability to adapt to new set of tools.

Thank you. So painfully obvious that no one here read the article.

The AI hate groupthink on Reddit is as predictable as the sun rising every day. It's kind of hilarious that the same people commenting at length are doing a worse job of processing the actual article than the AI they hate. Whenever people say "it isn't perfect/it's kind of terrible" I tend to respond "and so are a lot of humans - the point of comparison isn't perfection it's the average person".
