What they call "AI" usually isn't intelligence at all, just SLOP to help fake something "bring done" or "being made" to "meet targets"

Sorry Alvind ... AI isn't there yet. It cannot replace a human being with a brain. But then IBM doesn't really care whether humans have a brain or not so long as they work cheap (like many in India) compared to US salaries. The only reason you've achieved goals the past 3-4 years is because of PEOPLE. Look for a big downhill slide when AI takes over. Well, of course, you're not replacing upper management jobs that get paid millions in salaries and bonuses. Their sacred places must be preserved. "Let them eat cake."

Is Alvind really gonna make IBM's revenue grow to 5% in 2025 as this article states ?

Pigs might fly before that happens...LOL !
