Theme
Almost everyone uses AI now. Almost nobody has actually changed the company.
Rony sits down with Meghna — staff engineer, fifteen years in backend systems — to dig into that gap. Finance teams with a tab open on every desk. Closes that still take the same number of days. CEOs staring at flat cost-to-serve and wondering who lied.

Separates what was decided from what was merely discussed, attributes owners, and flags the open questions everyone left the room assuming someone else would answer.
