What we can learn from cloud adoption about AI adoption
summary
Claim: AI follows cloud’s hype curve but delivers when organizations rewire operating models. Evidence: AWS (2006) needed ~10 years to define cloud‑native; lift‑and‑shift often raises costs; Pokémon Go scaled ~50x on Kubernetes. First principles: AI is scalable, technically accessible, misalignment‑prone but microcontrollable. Forecasts: reliable automations underpinned by classic software, higher‑level autonomous agents, APIs with discovery, and rigorous access controls — including agent IDs and intent‑aware RBAC plus governance bots.
