When speed moves the constraint#
AI can make drafting, coding, analysis, and other individual tasks faster. But a faster task does not by itself make the larger workflow faster. The output still has to be reviewed, decided upon, coordinated, approved, adopted, and used.
The Bottleneck Moves follows the constraint that becomes visible after local work accelerates. It asks where progress now waits and what evidence would show that the whole process has improved.
From task speed to progress#
The book gives readers a way to distinguish a time saving at one step from an actual change in end-to-end progress. It considers the handoffs, judgment, accountability, and organizational conditions that determine whether faster work turns into a useful result.
