Cisco CPO predicts AI will have built majority of their products by end of 2027

AI right now feels like the go to for anything and everything that was tedious for humans to do or that took quite a bit of expense. What people seem to struggle to realize is that those exact things that they offload to AI are exactly what made their stuff reliable and well known like Cisco. If I am buying a router I really don't want vibe coded software, I want reliable software that had thought behind it especially if it supports a very critical part of a system.

There is a big perception issue with AI at the moment where people are (rightly) seeing anything associated with AI to be lower quality of error prone.

I wouldn't be saying AI has done anything at the moment in my company. Because for me it immediately reduces my trust in what you're putting out into the market.

Once the perception issue goes away or reduces, anything marked with AI is going to have consumers pretty distrusting in your product.
