The number one app for companies right now is “we can replace a lot of people and save a ton of money”, specifically look at the chatbot assistants you see on websites. Once they get the kinks worked out there, I guarantee they’ll have a talking version that will replace call center workers. And that’s only the beginning.
They’ve already run the numbers and figured the upfront costs are worth it. Occasional maintenance/cooling/upgrades/tech support is still going to be cheaper than FICA/Medicare/401K matching/PTO/maternity leave/overtime/workman’s comp/running a huge HR department/family day barbecues, etc.
Just trading one type of equipment for another, in their eyes.
It’s just the start though. It’s going to spread to any and every thing they can think of. When’s the last time a corporation said “Naw, that’s off limits. We can’t in good conscience monetize that.”
You don’t see a financial opportunity in delivering tools to dramatically speed up the creation of emails, reports, presentations, boilerplate graphics, etc?
Tell me you’ve never held a corporate job without telling me you’ve never held a corporate job.
There are people who literally live in Word and Excel every day. For them these tools could be life changing.
Looks like you were in search of an exit and you found it. You’re whole argument seemed to consist of “no” which would be responded to with more explanation to support their assertion, which you’d again respond “no” to. How many goes round did you think it would last?
Seriously though, if that was an insult/derogatory, i don’t know how long you’re gonna last here or anywhere on the Internet, tbh.

It has already spread to image and audio generation and manipulation. It has also spread to automated decision making in financial firms.

And that’s just one obvious userbase.
