AI, here to take your job, maybe not yet.

Tom's Hardware Blog: Over 80% of companies report no productivity gains from AI so far despite billions in investment, survey suggests — 6,000 executives also reveal 1/3 of leaders use AI, but only for 90 minutes a week.https://www.tomshardware.com/tech-industry/artificial-intelligence/over-80-percent-of-companies-report-no-productivity-gains-from-AI-so-far-despite-billions-in-investment-survey-suggests-6-000-executives-also-reveal-1-3-of-leaders-use-AI-but-only-for-90-minutes-a-week

AI systems still lack real-world judgment in ways that make replacing workers risky, Cuban added. He pointed to a simple example: An 18-month-old who pushes a sippy cup off a high chair quickly learns the consequences from their parents’ reaction. AI, on the other hand, lacks awareness.

“Agents can tell you the sippy cup will fall,” Cuban said. “But they have no idea of the context and what will happen next.”

The technology also lacks consistency, often “spac[ing] out” and failing to recognize why and when mistakes occur, he said—a level of competency on par with the youngest Gen Z talent.

“Agents are still like college interns that come in hungover, make mistakes, and don’t take responsibility for them,” he added.

Taken together, Cuban’s argument suggests that the biggest obstacle to AI replacing workers may not be the technology itself—but whether companies can trust it to perform consistently at a price that makes sense.

I have AI built into Gmail with Google Gemini. All it really does is remind me that I am too wordy. However Gemini and most AI grammar checkers change the tone of my writing which is not what I want.

I have moderate hopes for AIrve if it truly can match my writing style by analyzing my past reports.
