📍 How it ended

The story quieted without a definitive conclusion in the coverage regarding the long-term impact of these tools on institutional memory and company stability.
Epilogue added 87d ago, after coverage quieted.
The brief
Coverage from Business Insider notes that AI is making developers more productive. Reports from the Caledonian Record and the Quad City Herald add that office workers also feel a productivity lift thanks to AI tools.
At the same time, Mexico Business News and cio.com warn of an "AI blind spot" that could erode institutional memory, describing a risk of organizational amnesia. Futurism warns that companies embracing AI may be "rotting away" in a specific way, and Express Computer cautions that fast AI answers can encourage shallow thinking and a loss of reflexivity.
Future coverage will likely track how firms attempt to preserve knowledge, implement safeguards against shallow analysis, and address the health of AI‑dependent organizations.
