SHOW NOTES:
Topic 1 - Welcome to the show. Tell us a little bit about your background, and what you focus on these days at AllStacks.
Topic 2 - You’ve been talking to a lot of engineering leaders using AI coding tools—what’s the most surprising gap you’re seeing between increased code generation and actual delivery outcomes?
Topic 3 - Why does increasing developer output with AI often lead to more debugging, duplication, or cleanup instead of faster delivery?
Topic 4 - You’ve described an ‘invisible rework loop’—can you walk us through what that looks like inside a modern engineering team?
Topic 5 - As code generation gets easier, where does the real bottleneck shift in the software delivery lifecycle?
Topic 6 - How do unclear product or engineering specifications get amplified in an AI-assisted development environment?
Topic 7 - If traditional metrics like lines of code or velocity are becoming misleading, what should engineering leaders actually measure to know if AI is improving delivery?
Topic 8 - What does a ‘healthy’ AI-assisted development workflow look like 12–18 months from now?
