AI in enterprise SDLC only works when Context, Constraints, and Collaboration are engineered

Most AI adoption in SDLC improves local productivity. It violates the 3C model: Context, Constraints, and Collaboration. Consider a modernization example: Context: Constraints: Collaboration: Six sprints later: The AI wasn’t wrong. What worked was enforcing 3C explicitly: Enterprise AI succeeds only when all three Cs are present. Miss one — and AI accelerates failure.
