Greg Twemlow argues that the effortless performance of modern AI can lead to competent drift, where users stop questioning the reasoning behind automated outputs. This reliance on configured capability over personal judgment creates a vacuum of responsibility, making it difficult for organisations to justify or explain their decisions. To counter this, the author introduces the Fusion Bridge governance architecture, which mandates a deliberate pause for context and critique before any task is executed.
