How AI Is Changing Innovation: Why Speed Alone Isn’t a Strategy

Cisco's Jeetu Patel says AI abundance makes curatorial judgment, not raw building capacity, the new scarce competitive resource.

• Abundance shifts the bottleneck: Jeetu Patel says when code and prototypes are nearly free to produce, "choosing what not to build" matters more than deciding what to build.
• Cisco's AI scale: Cisco has 32,000 engineers coding with AI, expects 70% of products 100% AI-written by end of next year, and still plans to hire more engineers.
