This is a crucial question that often gets overlooked in the AI hype cycle. The article makes a great point about the disconnect between infrastructure investment and actual revenue generation.

A few thoughts:

1. The comparison to previous tech bubbles is apt - we're seeing massive capex without clear paths to profitability for many use cases.

2. The "build it and they will come" mentality might work for foundational models, but the application layer needs more concrete business cases.

3. Enterprise adoption is happening, but at a much slower pace than the investment would suggest. Most companies are still in pilot phases.

4. The real value might come from productivity gains rather than direct revenue - harder to measure but potentially more impactful long-term.

What's your take on which AI applications will actually generate enough value to justify the current spending levels?
