Generative AI seems like a perfect fit for Accenture, a company whose business depends primarily on generating PowerPoint decks.

My POV of consulting (as a former IBEW electrician) is that the consultants interview us underlings (and actually listen) and then make powerpoint slides of these communal ideas to present to executives as novel ideas. Our bosses eat this shit up shit-eating-grin-ily.

But I just twisted wires for a living so what the hell could I know about white collars?

That's about right in my experience.

Except they aren't really presenting them as novel ideas. The point isn't that they are novel, merely that because they now come packaged from a big consultancy, it provides the necessary level of ass covering to senior execs to be able to action some of them.
