If AI Can Do Every Job, Why Sell It as a Subscription?

Greg Fish has a test for separating what AI is actually good at from what it's being sold as, and it comes down to one sharp question he keeps asking companies that make the biggest claims: if it can really do that, why haven't you already done it yourselves? He runs the math on one of the industry's most quoted funding pitches, and the number that comes out the other end is not small. It's the kind of figure that makes the whole subscription model look strange in hindsight. A tool that can already do ninety percent of somebody's job isn't really a story about the tool. Greg says that math points somewhere else entirely, somewhere most people would rather not look.
