MIT NANDA-style argument says 95% of enterprise gen-AI deployments show no P&L impact

A discussion of why enterprise AI pilots often fail to turn into production impact.
The post cites MIT NANDA research claiming that 95% of enterprise generative-AI deployments it studied produced no measurable P&L impact. It argues the real challenge is not demo quality, but production discipline: handling real data, real users, unexpected inputs, regulation, infrastructure costs, and measurable business outcomes.
The core question it raises is whether a business problem is actually worth solving, and what evidence would justify scaling an AI solution.
