Building an AI R&D team: start with a hands-on evangelist, four pillars
Overview
An article argues that a traditional software team adopts AI effectively by first appointing a hands-on evangelist rather than a manager, and presents four pillars for building an AI R&D team, starting with that role.
The article cites Cursor's case study of Money Forward, where coding agent use rose 30% within a week and more than 1,000 employees used the tool daily. This is a single article's argument supported by that one case, and the other three pillars are not described in the available report.
