Predict

Can already confirm they are doing that.

The executives are building dog shit unrealizable tools right now that nobody uses. It's purely for the stock holders.

We marked ourselves as "AI powered" . Nobody is using our AI tools after they go live. We can see the logs.

Well yeah, I guess I meant more that this trend is increasing.

Did using the buzzword help at all with shareholders or customers though?

Don't even need to build them sometimes IMO. Friend pointed out that the excellent notetaking app she was using claimed to use AI and then she found this comment on reddit from one of the people behind it:

While FlowSavvy's auto-scheduling is considered AI in the broad sense that it performs complex tasks that mimic human intelligence (and is exactly what people are looking for when they're looking for "AI scheduling"), it does not ML/DL. Instead, FlowSavvy uses a carefully-designed deterministic algorithm to schedule tasks predictably, reliably, and quickly.

Everyone seems to be super happy with it as an AI auto-scheduler lol

It has helped a LOT with the stock price. With customers? Not even a little. We work with high end clients, customized solutions for every client. I can say without a shadow of a doubt that 100% of our clients have asked for us to remove the AI features.

LMAO so AI is just an IF statement.

That's funny.
