I guess that tokenmaxxing phase has served its purpose, of forcing people's brains to go from "i will never use AI, it's scary and new and useless" to "i must learn to use it, this is the new normal, otherwise i'm getting fired".
And now they're able to move to the phase of "let's now learn to actually use it effectively".
I am in the “I will use AI where it makes sense to make my job easier” camp. This approach was unfortunately incompatible with my SVP’s “we need to 10x AI” goal.
I found ChatGPT to be a never ending source of ideas for how to light tokens on fire as fast as possible in order to hit my target.
