I actually can't believe CEOs are this stupid. We legitimately live in Idiocracy. Do they actually think pointing to a random part of their business and saying "AI it!" will do anything? They're probably going to use it for customer-facing generative AI or LLMs, which have already been shown to reduce customer enthusiasm! The companies who are going to be mildly successful with this will either put in the effort to find an actually useful use case for it, or will use it internally to remove like 60% of their workforce (most companies are too dumb for this, but the profits would be enormous if they ever figured it out).
Who knows how many companies have already done the latter part of your comment. We'd have no idea, we'd just see unemployment numbers rising.
Oh dear...
Hehe, whoops
