Good use case.
For some reason this reminds me A LOT of past discussions about microservices, most wonderful on paper and forever debated, but I've never seen it work out perfectly in practice, for me it's mostly been a cluster F in most companies that adopted them.
Currently I see AI similarly, in theory perfect, in practice I don't see the claimed effects. So yes, skill issue, but skills are relevant and your company probably can't hire a rockstar team (if that matters in the future).
But your comment on personal experiences was very good! Spot on, we are all biased, easy to forget. Thank you for that.
I agree with your analogy as well, and I'm very open to the idea that this will mostly end up being good in theory but bad in practice.
