No signs of AI payoff outside the tech sector...yet. I think it's partially because our harnesses are generally much, much better. And engineers seem to be more deft at figuring out where AI provides real benefit and where it needs a watchful eye.

I'm seeing non-engineers use AI to send more emails, have more meetings, create more documents, and create more dashboards. So much of the busy work that happens in corporate environments was never that valuable in the first place. A firehose of busy work doesn't move any needles that matter.
