## Resource

MIT lab NANDA (“Networked AI Agents in Decentralized Architecture”) reveals less than promising results for the future of AI adoption in businesses. According to “The GenAI Divide: State of AI in Business 2025”, a whopping 95% of enterprise AI projects “are getting zero return” on their $30-40 billion investment. Jon Krohn takes this Five-Minute Friday to look into why this has happened, with help from a critical response to the report written by Futuriom’s R. Scott Raynovich.
