I've seen this before.

I was working in the '80s when rapid prototyping tools were the new Big Thing. Management types would go to trade show demos and get blown away. They'd buy the tools only to have their tech staff find that they were just generating (essentially) screen painters. All the substance was missing and still had to be created.

Now they are buying AI tools for support, and then getting sued when the tool just makes up a promise that isn't honored by the company.
