I agree, however, I've seen first hand how the AI fever and mandate from the top has finally busted enough information silos that previously 'have some DBA write a bunch of reports that answer specific business questions' just wasn't feasible in the first place, and now is.
Yeah, I will say it provides a good excuse to leadership & external stakeholders for fixing technical debt and working cross-functionally! Making infrastructure "AI-ready" and all that.
I imagine more of the benefit of AI will come from companies prioritizing infrastructure and effective organization than from the technology itself.
