I'd probably characterise it as more as "AI doesn't have the massively transformational ROI that all the AI salespeople said it would and now I have to pay for my tokens and the humans I though I could replace at the same time". The idea AI would be running whole companies below some weird godlike CEO who won because they were clever just pushed an attractive narrative for the investor class.

I am very bullish on AI as a tool, but not as a way to completely restructure the economy overnight. Doing things is hard, and better tools don't make fundamental problems about change go away.

I read this today which really resonated and is relevant: https://deadsimpletech.com/blog/attack-on-competence
