Despite significant investments, AI systems are delivering minimal impact for 70% of companies, according to a recent MIT study. The GenAI Divide highlights that only 10% of integrated AI pilots actually deliver significant value. The core issue often lies in how these systems are designed, with consumer chat applications rewarding plausible-sounding answers, leading to hallucinations or fabricated information. The problem often boils down to incomplete data, as corporate databases typically capture only 20% of business-critical information in structured formats. This unstructured data often holds the most decision-critical intelligence, yet most AI systems never see it, leading to confident but disastrously wrong predictions.

Property Owner to Pay State Over $14,000 to Settle Building Project Dispute: The owner of a building leased by the Attorney Generals Office will pay the state over $14,000 to resolve financial disagreements about a project started under former Attorney General Wayne Stenehjem. The payment comes after a review by the Legislative Audit and Fiscal Review Committee, which found that the Attorney Generals Office had overpaid the building owner, Stealthe Properties, by an estimated $14,600. The dispute arose due to differences in records between the Attorney Generals Office and Stealthe Properties, and the involvement of Representative Jason Dockter, who was later found guilty of a conflict of interest misdemeanor and three ethics violations.
