How KPMG's AI Dashboard Backfired

KPMG rolled out an AI usage dashboard in late 2025. The target, according to reporting we covered on the show, was roughly 75% of the working day. Three out of four days, you need to be in an AI tool, doing something. So what did KPMG's people do? They had AI summarize emails they'd already read. They asked it to make drawings. Anything to show activity on the dashboard. There's a name for this now: token maxxing.
