Business ought to be more precautious.

Most AI solutions are still in development. Most companies haven’t mastered AI governance.

And large portions of the labor force haven’t mastered AI usage.

It feels like we’re putting the carpet before the horse, designing deployment and talent cuts before designing capacity.

Precarious.

Exactly! It’s wild how companies are cutting people before they even know if their AI actually works or have any real governance in place. Many organizations don't even have proper frameworks for AI decision-making, risk management, or even basic quality control. 🫠

Yet they're restructuring entire teams around AI capabilities that may not deliver as promised. Crazy.

Real interested to see how the push for AI shapes product salaries as companies realize the gap between knowing the business and how the AI products actually work. It seems like at least in the US there's been a rush to downsize - probably a little too quick.

I think that as well, this reduction is probably happening too fast and before we really understand that gap. We will see where this leaves us in the next few years!
