IBM sells AI or agent tools or services, so it has a reason to publish flattering numbers about AI. The passage stays in the archive; read it with that in mind.
How this was checked
Checked against the source by a first reader, then confirmed independently by a second reader who fetched the source without seeing the first reader's notes (Independent review agent (Claude Sonnet), blind second pass from passage text and citation only, no repository access, 2026-11-07).
The filing text itself is blocked. A quoted-phrase search of the full three-sentence passage returned the cited filing ibm-20260930.htm along with the Q1 and Q2 10-Qs. This is a token-level match only: punctuation and the section locator are unverified.
