Depends how you define "a ton" of money. Plenty of startups have been acquired for silly amounts of money, plenty of consultants are making bank, make executives are cashing big bonuses for successful improvements using AI...

I define "a ton" of money in this case to mean "the amount they think of when they get the dollar signs in their eyes." People are cashing in on that delusion right now, but it's not going to last.
