If you have shipped an AI-powered system to production, you have likely lived this moment. The demo worked. Offline metrics looked solid. The model passed the evaluation. Then the incidents
AI-powered hiring didn’t arrive with a bang. It crept in. Quiet. A calendar invite scheduled itself. A shortlist appeared faster than expected. Someone noticed the inbox felt lighter. That’s usually
