Gets worse for projects outsourced to 1+ Consultancy firms, where staff costs are prohibitively high, now you've got another layer of complexity to factor in (risks, costs).

Consultancy A submit work, Consultancy B reviews/tests. As A increases the use of AI, B will have to match with more staff or more AI. More staff for B, mean higher costs, at slower pace. More AI for B, means higher burden of proof, an A vs B race condition is likely.

Ultimately clients will suffer from AI fatigue and inadvertently incur more costs at later stage (post-delivery).
