Waste of time. Slop. 10 person team 1 person does the work. Nobody learns anything. Arvind and Rob Thomabloviate on CNBC that 400,000 IBM people are now AI Gods. SMH.

Do the Watson X thing. Do some project that looks great at first glance but is actually full of AI hallucinations. Then see if management realizes that, or if they think it is great.
