They say ‘company X KPI are this % better thanks to AI’
They asked an LLM for the KPIs and it helpfully made up the figures they wanted to see.
Which became a self fulfilling prophecy once they showed those awesome “results” to the investors.
Of course it’ll all come crashing down once the investors ask for a return on their investment and there are no more new investors to support the pyramid, but by that point someone (probably not the brainrotten CEOs, who are drinking their own coolaid) will be far away with the money in a Cayman Islands bank account…

I used to joke that the CEO of my former employer must subscribe to some magazine called “CEO Weekly” in which they must periodically mention, in a similar “no examples of usage, just KPIs” manner, webchat. She would always forget about it promptly and then random number of weeks later bug my boss again.
I told him if they want me to come up with how they can use webchat and be their solutions designer they need to double my salary. $60k USD was not enough for being a tier 3 systems admin, a fax and telephony specialist, and figuring out their use cases for them just to check a box that says “we have it!”
