“Fixes companies internal documentation” is actually a huge get for AI, and would be worth some real hype, but yeah.
That’s still peanuts compared to the marketing, which is why people are getting pretty tired of the whole AI push. The actual, incremental improvements are being run over roughshod by snake oil salesmen.
The thing is that this is increasingly not true, hasn’t been true with blockchain and crypto that was all garbage and no substance, not with the metaverse hype, not with any of the hype Elon Musk tried to create (hyperloop?) and not with AI as a worker replacement.
There just isn’t any useful bit that sticks around in many cases and where there is those useful bits were never part of the hype or have been around for much longer than the hyped part.
Anyone who has used intranet search engines at large companies
Sharepoint search functionality comes to mind. Our team commonly refers it as write-once storage as once you throw something in there you’ll never find it again. And yes, we stole the term from somewhere.
So your overall point is that AI is a better search engine. “It’s like google, but better.”
This is both likely true, and no where near fantastical enough to justify the trillion dollar hype cycle.
