Some of both? I think it’s the SF zeitgeist in AI startups at the moment.

Personally not a fan…

Leaders demanding more output (code, emails, content) without understanding how AI actually works or investing in proper implementation.

The drive for efficiency squeezing out all time for human connection - leaving users alone with their bot “coworkers.”

It's not the tools; leaders must:

1. Invest in training; 5-10 hours brings adoption from 18% to 82%

2. Leaders have to roll up their sleeves. Engaged leaders drive 2X higher adoption.

3. Focus on outcomes, not outputs. Carve out time for connection.

Those perceptions of productivity gains might not be real: recent research found developers estimated they were 20% more productive using AI tools, when they were actually 19% slower.

Also, it totally f'ing pisses me off that I have to post something like this. There is ZERO cause for sending the Marines in to this situation. The National Guard was bad enough.

I know folks in LA on the ground -- there is nowhere near the level of situation to demand this.

A 22 year old college grad the bulk of whose “experience comes from having served as secretary general of a Model United Nations club.”

Oh, and he’s doing it part time.
