One of the smoking hot topics these days is AI-assisted development. How can we leverage tools and practices to improve the flow and make teams more effective?

My guest today is Michael Geatz, and he is dealing with this topic in the role of VP of Engineering. A couple of weeks ago, Michael stirred quite some interest with his LinkedIn post sharing his experience of moving the development team to AI-first development workflow. Soon after that post, I reached out to Michael and asked him to share more details with us, which he gladly accepted.

In this episode, we talk about a phenomenon that is deeply ingrained in our world today, and that is complexity. And my perfect guest for this conversation is professor Scott Page from University of Michigan whose focus is on researching complex social systems and the potential of collective intelligence. Scott is a fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, and a recipient of a Guggenheim Fellowship. I was blown away by his lectures available under the name Understanding Complexity.

In May, Scott will be our guest and keynote speaker at our annual QED conference in Zadar in Croatia. This conversation today is just a glimpse of insights we will share at the conference so jump straight to the QED web page, register and join us to learn more about complexity and how to harness it in daily life.

An accident happened in July that everyone is talking about. This conversation is inspired by the CrowdStrike event. However, it’s NOT specifically ABOUT the CrowdStrike event.

While everybody was mostly analyzing process dumps and null pointers, Bill Bensing and John Willis took the perspective of operations management and why the software industry is so prone to accidents. We’re missing things like operational definitions, blueprints, specifications, and standards.

Listen to our conversation where we talk about DevOps automated governance and debunk the myth that the software industry is so creative that no standard can (or should) be imposed.
