With dark humour, unflinching honesty, and a thoughtfully\n  provocative approach, it shows you exactly how most organisations ensure\n  their multimillion-dollar transformations die quietly in production, often\n  while everyone involved insists they're \"doing AI\"\n  brilliantly.\u003cbr\u003e\n    \u003cbr\u003e\n    You'll discover:\u003cbr\u003e\n    \u003cbr\u003e\n    \u003cspan style=\"mso-spacerun:yes\"\u003e    \u003c\/span\u003eJust Do AI(TM) and never ask\n  \"Why?\" because assumptions are faster, far less career-limiting,\n  and 95% of pilots will nod in enthusiastic agreement anyway.\u003cbr\u003e\n    \u003cspan style=\"mso-spacerun:yes\"\u003e    \u003c\/span\u003eGovernance as performance art how\n  to strangle innovation with 47 overlapping approval layers while solemnly\n  calling it \"Responsible AI\".\u003cbr\u003e\n    \u003cspan style=\"mso-spacerun:yes\"\u003e    \u003c\/span\u003ePolish the symptoms, preserve the\n  issue why fixing the obvious itches feels so much more productive than ever\n  touching the gory root causes underneath.\u003cbr\u003e\n    \u003cspan style=\"mso-spacerun:yes\"\u003e    \u003c\/span\u003eThe Technology first strategy the\n  surest way to keep AI safely away from messy things like customers, revenue,\n  and actual value.\u003cbr\u003e\n    \u003cspan style=\"mso-spacerun:yes\"\u003e    \u003c\/span\u003eThe Co-Head Hydra because nothing\n  screams \"speed of AI\" like requiring consensus from six busy people\n  before lunch.\u003cbr\u003e\n    \u003cspan style=\"mso-spacerun:yes\"\u003e    \u003c\/span\u003ePromise the moon, deliver the\n  PowerPoint how to overhype AI to the board until credibility dies a quiet\n  death in production.\u003cbr\u003e\n    \u003cspan style=\"mso-spacerun:yes\"\u003e    \u003c\/span\u003eMeasure everything except what\n  matters ROC curves, tokens per second, and other beautiful vanity metrics\n  that let you look extremely busy while value quietly evaporates.\u003cbr\u003e\n    \u003cspan style=\"mso-spacerun:yes\"\u003e    \u003c\/span\u003eAnd the pièce de résistance\n  turning your entire AI \"transformation\" into a quietly\n  authoritarian nightmare while still calling it \"people, culture, and\n  change\".\u003cbr\u003e\n    \u003cbr\u003e\n    \u003cbr\u003e\n    Inspired by the 1944 OSS Simple Sabotage Field Manual, this is reverse\n  psychology with a straight face. It is not another triumphant case study. It\n  is not another framework. It is a satirical mirror held up to every\n  executive, transformation lead, data scientist, governance committee member,\n  and procurement officer who has ever watched multimillion-dollar dreams\n  quietly die in production while updating the roadmap and scheduling another\n  alignment sync.\u003cbr\u003e\n    \u003cbr\u003e\n    Read it. Laugh (because if you can't laugh at corporate AI theatre, you\n  will cry). Wince (because some of it will feel uncomfortably, painfully\n  familiar). And if the humour lands just right, perhaps quietly rethink one or\n  two things before the next budget cycle.\u003cbr\u003e\n    \u003cbr\u003e\n    A work of satire by Dr. David R. Hardoon. Any resemblance to actual\n  organisations, transformations, governance committees, or CxOs is entirely\n  coincidental and without merit. Printed in irony.\u003cbr\u003e\n    \u003cbr\u003e\n    Perfect for anyone tired of the hype who can still appreciate a good dose\n  of ironic truth and a quiet, subversive cheat code for those brave enough to\n  use it.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Boufied Pte.
