Your meetings are useless.
And AI won’t save them.
If you cancelled half of your meetings tomorrow, most organizations would continue to function.
That alone should make us think.
The problem is not intelligence.
The problem is decisions.
Most meetings end without: • a clear decision
• a responsible owner
• a non-negotiable deadline
Without those three elements, nothing was decided.
People simply talked.
AI can summarize the meeting.
AI can transcribe every word.
AI can produce a beautiful report.
But AI cannot invent a decision that was never made.
If your meeting is vague, AI will simply generate beautifully written vagueness.
In the PLIB approach, this is called decision architecture.
High-performing organizations are not the ones that debate best.
They are the ones that formalize decisions best.
Next time, before leaving the room or closing your laptop, make sure one question has a clear answer:
Who owns what, by when?
