Almost all of the Enterprise/Corporate AI offerings are a significant step in cost that needs to bear actual fruit in order to be worthwhile, not to mention the compliance and security requirements most places have in order to get these things approved. We know there are use cases where AI makes sense, but we also know that there are many things that it can't do (at least right now). It makes sense that people aren't plunking down large amounts of money on this stuff, especially since the state-of-the-art so-often changes. What if you buy Claude and something new comes along, or ChatGPT gets better? It's difficult to make these purchasing decisions when products are static, and much more so when everything changes on a bi-weekly cadence.
Yeah. I worked in places where using LLMs actually made sense but in very limited scenarios (the results were then checked by humans anyway). But there are many places when using LLMs is actually hurting the business, especially if this is a business-to-customer offering and end users are seeing GenAI content. After the initial fascination, I guess many businesses realized that.
And they also try to minimize your use. Why do I need to stick "ultrathink" into my queries? That should just be the default and only mode!
> that needs to bear actual fruit
It may be sufficient to obscure reality enough, so that it is difficult to disprove it bearing significant fruits.
