The article points to companies not knowing why they are piloting AI,
not knowing what they are doing,
and not having their data ducks in a row.
Those are all perennial issues with organizations following any hype cycle,
but why is there nothing in the article asking if AI is even doing anything useful?
Isn't it also possible that these pilots aren't reaching production because organizations discover the technology doesn't live up to the hype?
We used to talk about the CEO's golf buddies.
Some senior sales exec invites a CEO to join him for a round,
spends the time on the course giving his full sales pitch,
buys a round or two at the 19th hole,
next Monday: NEW INITIATIVE!

This meant he’d read about some latest fad in the in-flight magazine, and this would invariably cause the launch of a new initiative!
