Azeem Azhar's analysis of earnings calls reveals a gap between corporate AI rhetoric and concrete business impact.

Implementation appears slower than executives claim, or promised efficiency gains haven't yet materialized into measurable financial outcomes. Investors may soon demand evidence-based AI narratives rather than aspirational CEO statements.
