I want to talk about how The Convict fluctuates between "I'm Sorry I'm sorry forgive me i didn't MEAN to!" and flying into pure uncontrollable rage at the slightest annoyance and how that dichotomy relates to the Revelation at the end but I'm not ready to talk spoilers i think. Yet.
Recent figures by MIT found that 95 percent of generative AI pilots are failing, with some drastic implications for the spending bubble.
Whomp whomp.
With AI software increasingly hogging the enterprise spotlight, companies and investors are spending like never before. In the first half of 2025, AI startups raised over $44 billion, more than all of 2024 combined. By the end of this year, a Goldman Sachs analysis estimates that total investments in AI will soar to almost $200 billion.
But all that money is, to put it gently, a reckless gamble. In the US at least, investors have essentially bet the farm on the idea that AI will soon lead to gains in labor productivity — the amount of goods and services workers are able to produce in a given time — that have never been seen in the history of humankind.
Despite the hype and bluster, that isn't happening. A new report by researchers at MIT, first covered by Fortune, found that a staggering 95 percent of attempts to incorporate generative AI into business so far are failing.
creating your own story is freeing but MAN is it lonely. like on the one hand, nobody can tell me shit about these characters bc their mine and the plot progression is wild
BUT at the same time
fangirling is kinda hard when you’re the only one who knows what the hell is going on and what the characters look like etc. etc.
