      so many things in this timeline have this ‘the pieces are there, but they don’t quite connect’ feel. Like Yang dropping out a month before covid.

      Yah right…. Decisions are still made by people who can’t print to PDF….

      Now if he was to say 4 years… Well that seems possible!

    3. Zero chance 12-18 months is right. Maybe years. AI is powerful but anyone who has implemented process design changes in a large org knows those things take a long time. No large company is going to replace a pivotal process overnight using an untested technology. It will be studied, piloted, funded and then implemented over a very long time.
