Episode 4 of The Language of Value. Instead of efficiency value, say Capability Value — because hours saved measures the work you already did, and capability value measures the work you can now do at all. Then the AI Replacement Trap and why getting better at removing people makes the real cost harder to see, a live spin to meet a seat on the AI-native team, the Value Maturity Ladder and the rung that separates a real capability from a demo, and a first-person account from inside our own operation.
