Another blog post about the study that found 90% of employees were using AI regularly in their work....that totally omits the part about 90% of employees using AI regularly.

The study found that company implementations were failing while people heavily used their own choice LLMs.

I agree. The original report is vague about that as well:

> Over 80 percent of organizations have explored or piloted them, and nearly 40 percent report deployment. But these tools primarily enhance individual productivity, not P&L performance.

How on earth does "enhancing individual productivity" not improve P&L performance?

That was a random show thought I had a couple days ago:

> We’ve managed to convince the biggest tech companies to invest trillions into tech that doesn’t replace SWEs, rather, a new dev tool at our disposal to make some aspects of our job easier: search and tedious coding tasks, saving us time.
