PHYSIX OBSERVATION
AI adoption in traditional industries does not depend on big budgets, but on bosses stepping in personally and running a closed loop from the most painful entry point. The real resistance is departmental walls and old rules, not the model itself. The signal is clear: turning veteran workers' experience into digital assets is the most valuable thing in this wave of AI sinking into lower-tier markets.
