ONE-PAGER

CEO decision architecture guide for AI

Strategy isn't model selection. It's the ability to tell one-way-door decisions from two-way-door ones.


AI strategy is often reduced to model selection — which vendor, which benchmark, which pilot to fund next. The harder and more consequential work is knowing which decisions can be reversed easily and which can't.

Type 1 decisions are one-way doors: agent identity, financial authority, compliance posture. Type 2 decisions are two-way doors: model choice, prompts, retrieval strategy. Confusing the two is where AI initiatives get expensive.

Inside the one-pager:

  • How to classify AI decisions as Type 1 or Type 2
  • Why accountability architecture matters more than orchestration
  • The three operating modes for AI systems — automate, assist, and avoid
  • How to measure tail risk instead of average accuracy
  • A 30-day plan to inventory and reclassify current AI decisions
