C-suite discovers AI exists, immediately mandates every feature must be "AI-powered" regardless of whether it makes sense. Six months later, the codebase is a dumpster fire of hallucinating chatbots and the last competent senior developer is updating their LinkedIn profile while you're left holding the bag. The timeline is oddly specific because that's exactly how long it takes for the AI hype to crash into the reality wall, the metrics to tank, and management to quietly pretend they never said any of this. You'll be the one left refactoring the mess while they're already onto the next buzzword.
