Done properly they should be the equivalent of "we're gonna slam dunk this thing we think is important to do by smashing these X and Y targets" so everyone high fives and is super pumped and energised making it happen.

I didn’t really mind the “drop everything” bit, we were looking for product-market fit after all, but when performance reviews come around and I killed 3 of those goals, sofa kind did 7 and spaced 10 it’s a situation where narcissists will convince management is half full and that mine is half empty.
It won't be perfect, but usually the AI can come up with a good draft.
That being said, the goal for us was to help people get a draft plan that they can tweak later. For instance, I don't know anything about PR, but I can ask the AI to generate a plan to get press and use that as a starting point.
We've also experimented with an AI that looks at past data to provide better advice, but you'd have to be in the product to see it.
