⚠️ SOC risk: Agentic AI needs onboarding — not blind trust 🤖🧠

AI isn’t a silver bullet. It’s a junior analyst that shows up knowing nothing about your environment. If you don’t train it, you’ll get:

🚫 False positives
📉 Overlooked incidents
🔁 Reinforced noise from bad data
⚙️ Automated dysfunction at scale

To make AI useful, leaders must:

📂 Feed it context — incident history, playbooks, and policy nuance
👥 Coach it like a team member
🧪 Test edge cases before trusting outputs
🔄 Build feedback loops to improve it over time

This isn’t about replacing people. It’s about teaching your AI to work like your people.
