Bain found 95% of marketing organisations have adopted AI tools but only 6% see significant performance impact, in a survey of 1,397 executives. With adoption close to universal, what sets the few apart looks like how their teams are organised, a link Bain's data suggests but cannot prove.

Luna, the agent running a San Francisco shop, wrote an attendance rule months ago and then lost track of it. The termination story is really a memory-management story.
