Expert Insights

Oji Udezu champions the delegation of work to AI in software development, arguing it's a practical solution, not laziness. He implies that clients will appreciate the benefits of AI-driven insights, which increase value and efficiency in problem-solving.

Oji challenges the relevance of Agile. He argues that while Agile once brought order to predictable enterprise projects, it was never truly suited for highly creative innovation. Now, with AI accelerating discovery and development cycles, Agile has broken down entirely.

Hear Oji explain:

  • Why Agile was never a fit for invention-led products in the first place.
  • How AI has shifted us from a “slow-slow-slow” world to “slow-fast-superfast.”
  • Why we need a new methodology — a language of product building fit for the AI era.

Customers want you to record the clicks, sift through the clicks, tell them what's wrong, give them the top five things that are wrong. Write the PRD. To fix them, understand the code base and check it in. They don't want, they don't want the intermediate...quotation-marks icon
