    1. The Surge of Slop—since the release of ChatGPT-3.5 in late 2022, the number of e-books published on Amazon has skyrocketed, tripling by late 2025.

    2. The real problem with AI implementation is not the actual expensive running models but CEOs poorly choosing services. Is this the case for AI consulting careers?
