Companies chasing every shiny AI object will only exhaust their teams and budgets. When will we learn to focus on genuine innovation over fleeting trends?
The strongest counter
The early failures of AI tools are simply part of the adoption curve. The ones that survive will fundamentally reshape workflows and deliver unprecedented efficiency gains.
