I’m not so sure if the actual problem is even part of your simplified phase model. What is most annoying about the AI hype is that those aspiring entrepreneurs try to put AI into everything, randomly throwing shit at things to see if it sticks. It was a similar hype with IOT and internet connectivity for everything, with the notable difference that the underlying technology was well matured at that point while AI is still basically in an experimental stage with often unpredictable and unsafe results.
