Ask HN: AI hype vs. reality: how are startups using it?

1•paulwilsonn•1h ago
Everywhere you look in 2025, it feels like every product pitch has “AI” stamped on it.

But on the ground, I’m curious:

Are founders here actually seeing real ROI from AI tools?

Or is it mostly marketing gloss right now?

For investors, are you treating “AI startup” differently than any other software play?

Would love to hear what’s working (or not) from real builders and backers.
