The premise
Dependencies hide in Slack threads and Jira; AI assembles the map.
What AI does well here
- Extract dependencies from project briefs and surface the critical path
- Flag the team that's blocking the most other teams
- Suggest which dependency to break first to free the schedule
What AI cannot do
- Force teams to actually unblock each other
- Replace the program manager's relationship work
- Know which dependencies are political vs. technical
