What an amazing time to be alive.

What an amazing time to be alive.
Anyone can build almost anything.
What could go wrong?

lol.

For the first time, almost anyone inside an organization can connect tools, automate workflows, and modify systems.

More people.
More software.
More connections.

What could go wrong?

"Don't worry. When something breaks, AI will explain it, generate the connector, and write the code to fix it."

Now we have more code.
More automations.
More systems that few people actually understand.

What could go wrong?

"That's okay too. When we get stuck, AI patiently walks us through the configuration."

Ask in plain English.
Flip another switch.
Connect another service.

More people making more changes inside more software.

What could go wrong?

If you have kids, answer this:
Does your kitchen get more or less messy when they start using everything?

- More or less cabinets left open?
- More or less damage to the pots and pans?
- More or less wasted groceries?
- More or less fire alarms going off?

In my house, that’s manageable. The costs are constrained. The risk isolated.
The mess is contained to a handful of people.

Inside a business, it's unconstrained.
There is almost no limit to the number of people who can change systems they don’t fully understand. And we're no longer constrained by the invisible lines that experienced professionals knew not to cross.

Now everyone has a trusted sidekick willing to help kick down almost any door. But it rarely asks if they were the right person to open it in the first place.
