FAQ

How can I prove my impact when the AI only shows commit numbers?
Show a latency‑reduction metric that ties directly to a $2.3 M revenue uplift, and reference the Google Impact Matrix’s “Systemic Factor.” The AI will still weight commits, but the reviewer will see the systemic data and adjust the score.

What if my manager insists the AI model is final?
Use the three‑line script: ask why the model ignored your latency gain, reject the “add a flag” suggestion, and demand the Systemic Impact Dashboard. In Microsoft’s April 2024 loop, that forced a 5‑0‑0 vote.

Should I negotiate compensation based on impact data?
Yes. Quote the exact numbers from your debrief: $210 000 base, 0.05 % equity, $30 000 sign‑on for senior roles that demonstrated a 15 % latency reduction. Those figures were accepted in the Google Cloud HC and set a precedent for future negotiations.amazon.com/dp/B0GWWJQ2S3).
