    I kinda get why they (and other companies) have to try AI at the moment though.

    It’s not what people claim it is, but it could end up being an essential tool for the modern world, and if they don’t invest in it early their business might end up getting left behind.

    We’ve certainly seen companies fall because they’ve not tried to stay on the cutting edge before.

      Best example I can think of is Kodak and digital cameras. They invented it then sat on it until it was too late because they didn’t want to cut into their film scam.

        Nokia. They were at the top before iPhone. They couldn’t catch up with smart phones at all.

        I believe Intel will be another potential example, but we’ll see about that.

      But is a bullshit generator even cutting edge in terms of web browsing? Feels like solutions without a problem.
