After analyzing data about 25,000 workers across 7,000 workspaces, users of AI only saved on average three percent of time. And only a meager three to seven percent of those productivity gains translated into bigger paychecks, they found.

Earlier this month, an IBM survey found that only a fraction of AI initiatives are delivering a return on investment after surveying 2,000 CEOs.

Seems right from my own experience.

I never ask AI to tell me how something works, or what a particular law, rule or regulation is. All I use it for is basically a search engine and ask it to point me to the exact spot from a reputable site where the information is contained. Everytime I have tried to ask it something technical, it gave me a stupid answer that was clearly wrong to anyone who knows a bit about the subject.

That’s the trick with LLMs. You have to figure out what they’re actually good for. They can be decent tools, but never employee replacements.
