What is Communication?
If you cannot explain what AI can and cannot do to a non-technical VP, you cannot be an FDE. Communication in this role is about translating between two different worlds: the technical reality of what you are building and the business reality of what the customer needs to justify the investment. That means being able to speak about token costs and latency in the same conversation where you are explaining ROI to an executive. It also means knowing when to say AI is not the right answer.
