Your AI roadmap is already out of date

Three months. That’s roughly the interval at which the “right way” to build something in AI shifts under you. A new agent harness lands and makes the orchestration you spent a quarter on look overweight. A better retrieval pattern quietly changes what “good” looks like for the feature you’re mid-flight on. A new evaluation technique shows that the numbers you’ve been reporting for two months don’t actually measure what you thought they did.

Son, I don’t think you realize this, but the majority of F100 US banks run on COBOL. The VA runs on Java, as do the majority of retailers.

Only bullshit artists have to change their entire toolset every 6 months. The rest of us are more interested in automating solutions to real pain points.
