I find it funny that a lot of mostly developers are trying to mimic their Scrum process with AI. AI is a game changer. You have to rethink how you work. Introducing AI in a company is organizational change not another tool.

Most modernization projects do not fail because of technology. They fail because nobody knows anymore what the old system actually does. In my new blog post, I show how the Brownfield Workflow of the AI Unified Process (AIUP) solves this: martinelli.ch/modernizing-...

Modernizing Legacy Systems with the AI Unified Process - Martinelli

Most software modernization projects do not fail because of technology. They fail because nobody knows anymore what the old system actually does. The code is there. It runs. It carries the business…

This video talks about Spec-Driven Development: write the spec first, then let the agent build. The spec stays the source of truth, and the code follows. That is also the idea behind the AI Unified Process (AIUP). Requirements first. Traceable. Reviewable. Have a look: youtu.be/odbNXv9xXjc

Stop reducing the SDLC to just programming. It is a process that spans everything from the initial idea to the application in a production environment. Programming is merely a means to an end. Unfortunately, none of the tool vendors seem to understand this.

The Trump administration inked a $1.6 billion deal for a U.S. company to mine tungsten in Kazakhstan. The company is linked to Trump’s sons & Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick’s sons, who will be personally enriched by their fathers’ policy decisions. The corruption is breathtaking.
