In my large enterprise world, AI adoption hasn't made it outside of the development teams - only developers have access to Github Copilot.

Code takes 6-12 months to make it from commit to production. Development speed was never the bottleneck; it's all the other processes that take time: infra provisioning, testing, sign-offs, change management, deployment scheduling etc.

AI makes these post-development bottlenecks worse. Changes are now piling up at the door waiting to get on a release train.

Large enterprises need to learn how to ship software faster if they want to lock in ROI on their token spend. Unshipped code is a liability, not an asset.
