I am not sure how grounded this is in reality. Fortune 500s that were not already testing the waters with companies like Anthropic are rushing to figure out governance and how to use these tools across their orgs.

Has there been a ton of hype? Absolutely but the value proposition is getting more and more tangible.

Did some of the AI companies over commit in spending? I am sure and they will probably hurt in the long term. I thought Anthropic had been scaling towards profitability at a quick timeline though.

Most of this is still structured around "find use cases for AI" rather than one (or more) clear use cases being the reason for adopting AI.

There's no "Lotus 1-2-3" of AI. Even the software development applications are still somewhat controversial and highly pushed based on "Sam Altman promised me 10x developers".

		With the recent pushes into tools like Cowork/Claude Code for business users that’s not the reality I am seeing. We still have a long way to go to figure out the full value potential but it’s already at a point where there is a lot of low hanging fruit being able to be captured. Of course an anecdote of what I am seeing with my own company and companies I can peek into. YMMV but it’s a pretty clear path that these are going to be increasingly adopted.
