No one doubts AI can be a great help to businesses. However, is it any good as a business? None of the companies that develop AI models — including Google, Microsoft and OpenAI — can say when they might even break even on their huge investments in it.

The general purpose of a customer data platform (CDP) is to gather information from different sources and consolidate that data into a single record.
