Procurement AI Cartoon: When Manual Guesswork Gets a Tech Rebrand

The Scenario: In this procurement AI cartoon, we peel back the curtain on corporate "AI-washing."

Faced with a budget freeze and a board obsessed with digital transformation, a procurement leader simply rebrands their manual, gut-instinct decision-making as a tool called "Accidental Insight."

It is the ultimate satire on the modern office where a simple human choice is dressed up in tech-jargon just to sound expensive enough to be taken seriously.

The Observation: This narrative identifies the "Semantic Transformation"—where departments change the name of the process without changing the process itself.

At Kaapi with Ravi, we observe that the most effective "AI" in many procurement teams is actually just a tired manager with a coin to flip.

This post adds a slick layer to our procurement cartoons collection by mocking the pressure to appear high-tech while operating on purely manual fuel.

It reveals that "Accidental Insight" isn't a software failure; it's a human confession.

Procurement AI: A sophisticated system where "Machine Learning" is just a fancy term for a human finally learning from their own past mistakes.
