They're running Ralph Wiggum loops in Claude Code and just kinda reading the code before it hits production. Yeah, the divide is WIIIIIDE. So we're gonna tackle it together on the second volume of our Starter Series: AI Without the Jargon: The AI Language Every Business Leader Needs to live by in 2026 -- An Everyday AI Chat with Jordan WilsonNewsletter: Sign up for our free daily newsletterMore on this Episode: Episode PageJoin the discussion on LinkedIn: Thoughts on this?
