Summary

Stop paying for the hype. Market data shows tech spend hitting $500 billion this year, but most of it is just "bubble" behavior. Buying 20 different AI tools for text and meeting summaries isn't a competitive edge—it's just increased overhead with zero productivity gain. The infrastructure is still being built. Stop funding the hype cycle and start focusing on actual ROI. Send us Fan Mail
