My worry is similar to yours. There seems to be this "faith" that Chatbots are going to save the day. I am finding people who are using it to do general market research without even spot checking the data. Alas, I have found it to sound reasonable, but then to fail miserably when I dive in and try to validate.
What I worry more about is executive staff being all in, as what they do, the current performance is fine. It is perfect to craft a high level narrative, and tell a story.
But go one or two levels deeper where you really need to be ready to justify investments, or efforts based on data, it falls hard.
My fear is that the up and coming generation of PM's will not know when to question the data.
An "anti-hype" piece one in a while is very grounding. Basically, just remember the old wisdoms that have stood the test of time, like: "check your sources", "follow the money" and "if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is". Oh, and: "see and think for yourself". Thanks.
Great, balanced insights. Thank you

Happy new year to you too!
