Tech CEOs Have a Problem with ‘AI Psychosis’: They’re Suffering from Delusions of Grandeur

Box CEO Aaron Levie says some tech leaders are falling into “AI psychosis,” overestimating what current AI can safely replace.

The article says claims of major AI-driven job cuts, like at ClickUp, may outpace what studies show about real productivity gains.

Research from Berkeley, the NBER, MIT, and others suggests AI often improves speed, but quality gaps and inconsistent results remain.

The likely bottleneck may shift from workers to managers, who must review, verify, and control more AI-generated output.
