Unfortunately there are a shitload of ML ‘experts’ out there who do not know what they are doing but still get results that are good enough to not get fired and receive copious amounts of money every year. These tools help doing that; companies generally don’t see the difference anyway and they don’t know how to set or evaluate KPIs on these ventures; they don’t even know what or why they are asking for; they just know they need to show progress with AI to not become obsolete.
