Our AI mandate is coming. I'm trying hard to be a voice of reason, but it's bows and arrows against the lightning, I'm afraid.

Get ready for this to become a common theme. Boardrooms are still engaged in the fever-dream promise that AI will solve all their problems, particularly those involving pesky humans. The simple lesson of "AI is another tool" will be a hard-learned one. Some industries, such as software, will take more time to mop themselves into a corner before they discover that velocity should never be a first-class concern. Speed should only come as a side-effect of quality.

The classic blunder of believing that there is, in fact, a "free" lunch.
