This is all the explanation you need on why they're doing this bone headed shit. It's not their problem in a few quarters when they jump ship after padding their resume on the company's dime.
Sure. But I haven't seen credible evidence that any of this drove any revenue.
Correct features, thoughtfully planned, and expertly executed, at the right time, sometimes drive new revenue.
AI slop is about 99% orthogonal to anything that helps drive revenue.
People will claim it helps with timing, but timing only works if the feature is correct and AI makes organizations that rarely got things correct in the first place even less likely to get things correct.
