Shift Happens!® When Your Stake Loses Its Sizzle

Introducing AI Sauce™: The Only Condiment That Pairs Well with Spontaneous Usage & Misplaced Confidence. After watching this video

Suppose your business strategy tastes bland lately. In that case, it might be time to reach for something bold, spicy, and slightly confusing: AI Sauce™ — 100% Pure Insights and infinite unintended consequences.

 Inspired by the flavor-packed bottle in this mockup, along with the now-viral Facebook reel, it presents a tongue-in-cheek concoction of what happens when futurists get hungry for transformation… and a laugh.

(See Disclaimer)

🔍 What's in AI Sauce™?

I'm glad you asked. According to the label:

1.    Water (still confused)

2.    High-Fructose Confidence (syrupy overconfidence guaranteed)

3.    Vinegar of Vision (unverified, naturally)

4.    Natural Prompt Flavors (with subtle hints of ChatGPT-ese)

5.    Crushed Expectations (finely ground from beta tests)

6.    Hallucinated Use Cases (pairs well with boardroom buzzwords)

7.    Spices (may include bias, proceed accordingly)

8.    Caramelized Roadmaps (sweet plans with sticky execution)

9.    Vaporware Extract (aromatically ambitious)

⚠️ May confuse, misplaced confidence, or spontaneous usage.

Yes, usage — because spellcheck is no match for innovation.

🧪 Why This Matters

We live in a world where every pitch deck has an AI tab, every product has "GPT-like features," and every meeting includes someone who just read a Forbes article on "prompt engineering."

But let's be honest:

Too many companies are pouring AI Sauce™ on their operations without reading the ingredients — or checking the expiration date.

🧠 The Real Lesson Behind the Satire

This parody is more than a laugh. It's a mirror.

1.    "Crushed Expectations" = unmet promises from poorly integrated tools.

2. "Lucinated Use Cases" ="applying AI where logic fears to tread.

Before you serve AI to your customers or employees, make sure your recipe has the following:

✅ Strategy

✅ Alignment

✅ Training

✅ Human oversight

(And ideally, fewer hallucinations.)

And like any good sauce, it's all about how you apply it.

🧂 So, who should use AI Sauce™?

The answer? Just about everyone:

1.    Startups slather it on everything to attract investors ("Now with AI!").

2.   Executives drizzle it over legacy systems and call it transformation.

3. Marketers use it as a justification for this quarter's hike.

4.    Consultants? We practically bottle and sell it (don't — mine comes with instructions).

But the truth is, AI isn't. You should Trust but Verify. It's an ingredient.

And like any good recipe, the result depends on the skill of the chef, not just what's on the label.

📉 What Happens When You Overdo It?

Just like actual steak sauce, misuse turns a great cut of business into something unrecognizable:

1.  Drenched dashboards with no decision-making power

2. Chatbots that confuse more than they convert

3. Smart tools that generate more work, not less

4. Teams are so dazzled by automation that they forget to ask, "Does this even solve a problem?"

Remember: Not everything needs a dose of AI Sauce™. Some problems still require old-fashioned 'thinking inside the box,' empathy, and a whiteboard.

✅ Here's AI Sauce™ Responsibly:

1.    Taste first. Does AI enhance the experience or mask the flavor?

2.    Read the label. Know what you're I, in you're in — and what risks come with it.

3. Don't. Avoid over-promising "transformation when you've only used autocomplete.

4.    Add human seasoning. AI should amplify judgment, not replace it.

🎤 Final Thought

If your AI strategy feels like it came from a takeout menu… maybe it's time for a new chef.

This is certainly a tasty take on the current state of AI usage, James D. Feldman, CSP, CITE, CPIM, CPT. People reading it should let its wisdom sit on their palate for a while before swallowing anything served up.
