> Last week, you spent three hours writing a campaign brief. You saw a colleague generate something 80% as good in four minutes using an AI agent. Maybe 90% as good if you’re being honest.

No it's like 60% as good, but management and other "AI for brains" people can't see it.

If that's the case, then business results should get worse, and management should notice this. If business results don't get worse, then either 1) it's actually more than 60% as good, or 2) it doesn't matter to the business's bottom line that the result is only 60% as good instead of 80% as good, and management made the right decision.

>business results should get worse, and management should notice

This is a common oversimplification that results in an enormous amount of waste and bad products/services. Lots of causes and effects are too disconnected to see or too hard to measure. In addition to looking at metrics, good business leadership most also act like a human (which is a depressing thing to have to say): Use common sense; like good things; dislike bad things.
