Listen "The AI Argument - S1E23 - Gartner in despair - 80% of AI projects do not fail, they haven't started yet!"
Episode Synopsis
Is AI really in a 'Trough of Disillusionment,' or are we jumping to conclusions too soon? Frank and Justin take a close look at Gartner's claim that AI has peaked and that users are now sliding into disillusionment. With the rapid advances in AI, it seems premature to be disillusioned, but moving beyond the hype might usher in a phase of more focused and productive use cases.You’ll also hear Justin’s sharp critique of a study that claims 80% of AI projects are failing, alongside a discussion about how this once mind-blowingly innovative tech is quickly becoming commoditized.→ Is AI truly in a "Trough of Disillusionment," or is that claim premature?→ Are 80% of AI projects really failing, or is there more to the story?→ Are Google's "Gems" just another step in the commoditization of AI?→ What’s OpenAI’s real stance on regulation, and what’s the deal with Project Strawberry?Join us to argue through whether we’re at the start of something revolutionary or merely sorting through the rubble of overblown expectations
