## AI overview

This article argues that enterprise architecture depended on implicit properties supplied by human participants, including predictable workload, intent, accountability, feedback, and limited capacity. It concludes that agentic AI exposes pressure across multiple technical and organisational domains by removing those assumptions simultaneously.
