By now, AI isn’t just a buzzword in the 2026 boardroom—it’s the plumbing. But as developers race to push the tech into uncharted territory, the line between "breakthrough" and "breakdown" has become razor-thin.

Ultimately, what happens is that these businesses have employees manually connect these apps in various ways, all of which waste time that would be better spent doing meaningful work.
