A printed page of figures rests on a dark lectern, one line circled in gold ink, with a softly glowing blank screen behind it. A leader looking at AI results. The scene feels quiet and serious, like the moment just after a mistake has been noticed and before anyone decides what it means.

Seen from the far end of a conference table, three pairs of hands rest still on a notepad, a cup, and a closed laptop while a leader speaks, out of focus, at the head of the table. A band of gold light falls across the empty middle of the table. The mood is watchful and quiet.
