Geoff, you mention evolution. In my opinion, it will become survival of the fittest, not unlike any other group of tech products. Remember the early search engine days? Excite, Altavista, Dogpile, and so many others are long gone. Until the I/O conference, I was concerned that Google may die on the vine. Not so any longer.
My go-to AI tech stack consists of ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Gemini—all paid for and, so far, indispensable. But I'm with you. If they cease to provide value, then out with them. (Although I must confess that I don't see that happening soon.)
You also mentioned the PWC study, which found that 41% of executives say workforce issues, such as training, culture, or change in work, are among the top-five challenges their organizations face in using GenAI.
That's precisely why I'm starting the AI Technostress Institute—to ease the pain and ensure people become AI-productive without becoming AI-overwhelmed.
The reality of all of it is that we are so early. We know this because we have been through a few of these cycles, but the immediacy of the media hype and news aggregation cycle creates a false sense of victory and disappointment with AI at every moment, or so it seems.
