AI Writes Code - Leaders Build Trust

AI Writes Code, Leaders Build Trust

AI is giving us massive leverage on the technical side. Tools like Copilot, Cursor, v0, Coderabbit etc... are raising the floor for everyone.

But the biggest lever for impact isnt technical.
It's human.

It's clarity.
It's psychological safety.
It's the ability to have a hard conversation.

AI can write the code. It can't build the trust.
That's still the leaders job
