I think run companies need people and ideas. And of course, who knows which of them can be profitable. So instead of run new companies, why not keep increasing current profitable business?

Surely their AI is soooo dangerously good, that it will find profitable avenues and business ideas, if you just ask it!

If you take their marketing bla as truth, I don't find the OP's question to be an exaggeration at all. They should be able to do that easily. Just need one person per business who is a master prompter and off you go! By now no engineers needed, no lawyers needed, and no designers needed, right?
