601 Reasons GenAI Just Got Real With Concrete Proof
Big drop, this 601 ideas that you can turn into a business

Think of us as your AI filter.
The signal comes through, the junk stays out. Good morning from The Midas Report, let’s freshly serve you today’s big moves in AI.
Now sometimes it’s easy to get AI fatigue, we get it, there’s just so much info and it keeps coming thick and fast.
That’s why Google’s latest release is so valuable. It helps you appreciate the tangible impact of AI and it’s real world uses.
So what did they put out?
Well Google just quietly dropped a list of 601 generative AI deployments and every single one is live, operational, and tied to a real business.
It’s the largest public collection of enterprise GenAI use cases we’ve seen yet.
No sizzle decks. No hypothetical POCs. Just telecoms using AI to debug networks, retailers onboarding supply chain copilots, insurers speeding up underwriting, and lawyers getting out of legal research jail.
If you've been wondering whether GenAI is still stuck in experimentation mode, this is your answer, it's already in production.
And not just in tech forward companies either, we're talking manufacturing, logistics, public sector. The breadth of uptake signals a shift from curiosity to budgeted commitment, especially in high stakes, operational use cases.
That changes the conversation.
For startups pitching now, this list is your exhibit A. You no longer have to convince buyers GenAI is viable, you just have to show why yours is better.
For revenue teams, it’s a cheat sheet for pattern matching which industries are moving fast and which problems they’re actually willing to pay to solve.
Some of the most interesting traction isn't even in flashy consumer apps. It's role specific copilots quietly embedding into workflows, for example a CPG company using a custom GPT to walk through SAP queries, or an airline streamlining luggage handling suggestions.
Boring is working.
The move from hype to habit is here and Google’s release is concrete proof of this. GenAI isn't just a lab prototype anymore or Youtube influencer hype.
If you've got a product or service in this arena, the smartest move this week?
Skim the list. Find the warm spots. And update your deck accordingly.
