Wow, I’m surprised companies do that! It seems obvious that people won’t use a new product if it isn’t immediately useful.

AI without the training data... 😕 an empty box

It could be - many tools are wrappers using existing LLMs (OpenAI APIs etc).

This allows some (probably undifferentiated) features to be built to get the process moving (as we call it - the bridge).

Great AI products need training data, and often vast amounts of user data to make the offer work well.

This is really important to get right otherwise, as you say, they’ll be building empty boxes.
