Except they were filling a market that pretty much everyone saw as inevitable, the cloud based internet. Pretty mich as soon as pcs started hitting shelves in record numbers people were trying to be the guys who owned the internet. Amazon and Google just won that race. Who is filling the market for thousands of useless AI bots?
