News editors: Let's go ahead and publish another "news" article about a TikTok video on an overhyped topic!
Almost all companies deploying generative AI don't see their revenue change significantly. AI is not the money maker people claimed it was going to be.
When people make claims about what "AI" is going to do in the future they're talking about Artificial General Intelligence - not Large Language Models.
While I agree with you, its that very misunderstanding that bosses and owners have, and they'll fire regular folks and replace with ai. They may suffer lower quality and even catastrophic failures but it will take time for them to realise and rehire people. All those regular folks will be out of work during that time.
