AI Mania Is Eviscerating Global Decision-Making

# Summary Organizations worldwide are experiencing what the author describes as "mass psychosis" around AI adoption, with executives making irrational investment decisions driven by hype rather than evidence of actual productivity gains. The author, who has conducted hundreds of professional conversations across sectors, argues that most AI investments are failing, but companies systematically misrepresent their results because executives fear being removed for admitting failure and employees risk termination for honesty. This creates a perverse incentive structure where boards, vendors, and consultants all benefit from perpetuating the myth of AI success despite widespread implementation failures.
