One editorial a week, and the watch behind it
Advances in AI no longer create new possibilities — they expose old organizational incapacities. The question is no longer what the machine can do, but what the company can withstand.
AI doesn't speed up your company — it reveals your slowness. Welcome to the era of Agentic Infrastructure.

Fourteen major software disasters in the decade before coding assistants, and not a single line of AI in any of them. Ports left open with no password, default credentials, backups no one had ever tested. We never really trusted developers. We trusted a chain of reviews, tests and post-mortems. The whole question is what that chain still catches, and at what price.
Read the analysisThe diagnosis is settled: AI does not create organizational debt, it calls it due. What remained to be written was the sequel: how you repay. This article ports the machinery of financial turnaround onto the organization: covenants instead of an inventory, three repayment regimes, a triage between avalanche and snowball, and the option no one dares take, restructuring. A case for keeping a register of organizational debt at the same rank as the risk register.
The era of the interface as a "cover-up" for organizational complexity is ending. With the rise of the agentic, design does not disappear: it shifts from the surface of the screen to the structure of the contract. The click no longer carries authority — semantic clarity does. A case for moving from designing journeys to architecting robust business models.
In the AI era, systematic manual code review has become a toxic bottleneck. Why the future of tech requires us to abandon Taylorism and move to true systemic auditability infrastructure (CI/CD).
L'avènement de l'IA agentique rend obsolète l'immense infrastructure méthodologique bâtie par l'industrie Tech depuis vingt ans. Alors que la production de code devient une commodité, le véritable défi des dirigeants n'est plus technologique, mais structurel : il s'agit de démanteler l'encombrant "exosquelette Agile" devenu un frein, pour réallouer massivement le capital financier et humain de l'usine à code vers la stratégie et la découverte de valeur.
Integrating Generative AI is more than a tech upgrade; it’s a brutal reveal of organizational entropy. While digital natives operate at the "speed of intent," traditional firms are suffocating under a "viscosity tax", a silent hemorrhage of cognitive bandwidth that threatens their very survival.
Behind every 'untouchable' expert lies a silent non-aggression pact between overwhelmed leaders and protective technicians. This isn't mastery; it's a complexity rent. In an era of radical agility, opacity is no longer a shield—it is a financial liability that modern organizations can no longer afford to carry.
AI is not just improving software — it is exposing its obsolescence. A deep dive into the "viscosity tax" that paralyzes your company's productivity.
