The brain-dead take is that companies should explore new technology. Without any qualifiers on it (i assume there aren't because you didn't add any and you applied it to ai). That's how we've ended up with such a huge amount of waste, pollution and theft from small independents.

Even if we just narrow it to the field of AI, the waste and environmental damage from just this kind of tech is just absurd.

Let's add to the downsizing ai causes, the pathetic service disruptions and inevitable decline of a company's reputation from using such a thing and its nothing but a waste.
