CEO's buy into the hype that they can replace a number of employee's with cheaper vendor sponsored AI. Yes, AI can spit out numbers and code fairly easily. But is it right? Is it finding insights and patterns in the data that a human would do who looks beyond conventional norms?

Most I would say had templates where they could drop things in and get the basic information that was usually required. May have taken 10 to 15 minutes longer than AI. But that's when the real work began, coming up with a hypothesis, pulling info that was not typically used, sometimes your hypothesis is wrong, but sometimes you are right and find a leg up on the competition.
