You’ve seen the video. A kebab shop owner, with an artistic flair perhaps better suited to a gallery than a food stall, liberally applies mayonnaise to everything from the meat to the packaging. The caption, “When companies add AI to their product portfolio,” hits the nail on the head. It’s a comical, yet accurate representation of how some businesses are approaching AI integration.

The AI Overdose

AI, undoubtedly, is a powerful tool. It’s revolutionising industries, from healthcare to finance. But like any tool, it needs to be used judiciously. The problem is, AI has become the new buzzword, slapped onto everything from toasters to toothbrushes. It’s as if companies believe that simply mentioning AI will magically transform their product into a consumer darling.

The Value Proposition

Let’s be clear: AI can be a game-changer when applied thoughtfully. Take, for instance, GitHub Copilot, which is revolutionising the software development by significantly boosting developer productivity. This is a prime example of AI delivering tangible value.

On the other hand, we’ve seen AI used as little more than a marketing gimmick. We’ve seen AI-powered chatbots that are little more than glorified FAQs, offering no real advantage over a well-structured help page. Or AI-driven product recommendations that are so generic they might as well be random. These are instances of AI as mere garnish, adding nothing to the flavour of the product.

Risk

The danger of this indiscriminate AI application is twofold. First, it risks diluting the true potential of AI. By overusing the term, companies risk desensitising consumers to its benefits. Second, there’s the very real possibility of AI fatigue. Just as consumers can become tired of constant advertising, they can also grow weary of products claiming to be AI-powered without delivering tangible value.

So, while AI is undoubtedly a tool with immense potential, it’s crucial to remember that it’s not a magic wand. Before integrating AI into a product, companies must ask themselves a fundamental question: Does it genuinely enhance the user experience? If the answer is no, then perhaps it’s time to rethink the Mayo-on-everything approach.
