What's an assumption AI has broken in your org that you didn't see coming?

The bottleneck isn't making stuff anymore. It's figuring out what's actually worth making. I'm still working that out myself.

The trough of disillusionment isn't about AI underperforming. It's about everything around AI not keeping up.

It's the scrollback problem at org scale. The defaults were fine before. They're not anymore.

Teams spin up agents, get dazzled by output, ship it without changing how they review or decide. Budgets evaporate. Nothing ships faster.

It's that most orgs haven't changed how they actually work around what AI makes possible.

MIT's 2025 "GenAI Divide" research: 95% of enterprise GenAI pilots deliver zero P&L impact. The barrier isn't the models.

This pattern is everywhere now. AI makes it easy to generate content, code, analyses. But how we review, ship, and decide? Same as before.

The setting didn't break. The assumption behind it did.

"Unlimited" was perfectly reasonable. Nobody designed it thinking a tireless agent would be generating output at 3am.
