Description
Episode 1 - The week of March 30, 2026 marks a quiet but significant pivot.
Not a new model. Not a benchmark record. Not a lab announcement. Something harder to name: AI that stops answering and starts acting.
Three signals this week capture that shift better than any blog post.
The first is grounded in a concrete number, from a real company, at scale - and it reframes what "AI works" actually means in practice.
The second is the most underestimated signal in the industry right now. It explains why so many AI products look magical in demos and break down in real life. It has a technical name - but its implications are entirely organizational.
The third is clean and measurable. It comes from the one domain where AI performance can be evaluated without ambiguity - where the result simply works or doesn't.
What connects these three signals, and what it means for those who build, invest, or are simply trying to think clearly about what's coming next: that's what this episode is about.
