That is AI theatre: output that exists to prove the tool is running. Posts nobody asked for. Summaries nobody reads. A weekly report on hours saved. It looks like progress, and it quietly costs you real hours to make and review.

This week on ๐“๐ก๐ž ๐€๐ˆ ๐๐ซ๐ž๐š๐ค๐๐จ๐ฐ๐ง, Kree and Varun open part two of the theme:

๐“๐ก๐ž $๐Ÿ๐ŸŽ ๐„๐ฆ๐ฉ๐ฅ๐จ๐ฒ๐ž๐ž.

Here is the uncomfortable evidence. In a 69 page study of its own customers, OpenAI found no meaningful link between how intensively a company used AI and its revenue per employee. Usage is not a result. Tokens are not revenue. And a six person team is far more exposed to a wasted year than a four hundred person one.

Inside the episode:

๐Ÿ”ด US Cryotherapy: revenue up, headcount up from 8 to 12, owner uses AI mostly to think
ย 

๐Ÿ”ด Gusto on 100,000 small firms: ๐Ÿ๐ŸŽ points more AI exposure, about ๐Ÿ.๐Ÿ% more revenue
ย 

๐Ÿ”ด The two numbers that count: net revenue per person, and what the freed time became

Point AI where judgment is expensive and slow. That costs the same twenty dollars as the theatre. ๐ŸŽ™๏ธ
