The article argues that enterprise AI adoption is failing not because the models lack capability, but because organizations lack the reliability engineering, memory infrastructure, and operational discipline needed to make AI systems dependable in production. It draws a parallel between human organizational forgetting and the need for systematic AI reliability practices.
