Google and Microsoft CEOs had a bunch of nonsense when it came to ROI on AI and their multibillion spending sprees. So far it seems AI chatbots don’t have good enough application to justify investments. Beyond manipulating elections and fraud there seems to be very little practical use of faking someone’s voice or video. Chatbots require to be included in a complex “agent” meaning a big application that uses AI to infer facts from natural speech and synthesize natural language responses from an app. That is what agents are – interface to your order system that is not a web page but instead you can write something like “I want a pepperoni pizza” and have the AI ask “here to go?’ Wait for answer and then ask “How will you pay? Credit Card or cache?”…that is what agents are….

The question is not whether it can get beyond the hype stage. The question is whether it is more effective from a profit generating perspective if customers are lost due to its use. Consider that.

The notion that AI Agents, with their ability to automate entire workflows, will just free up humans to do the creative work is only one half of the full story. You’re being handed the rose-colored glasses and ushered into the spin zone. Cathy is blatantly ignoring the fact that there will be massive, irreversible job losses directly caused by the automation of entire workflows via agentic AI. I just wish these tech reporters were more candid about that.
@changedNameSorry
January 5, 2025 at 4:21 pm
The problem with ai content production is actually that there is more than enough of derivative content already. The problem is rather to find the interesting, original content. And that was something where past implementations of ai did help a lot. I don’t need an ai to summerise a complex problem for me, I prefer humans to do this for me. I’m just happy if the ai guides me through all the trash towards sincerely original content, as it did in the past.
