Current Trends in CEO Anxiety
Many CEOs are experiencing anxiety as they face pressure from investors regarding their companies' perceived potential in the AI market. Despite revenue numbers being stable, investors seem more focused on unrealistic AI-related expectations, leading to stock declines if companies fail to meet these targets.
