There's an electricity in the room when a team sees something work for the first time—not the kind of "it compiles" success, but a real, felt leap forward.
Brilliant piece. Fully agree, especially on the danger of mistaking *tactical acceleration* for *outcome-based strategy*.
I’ve seen decks where the model was the main character and the customer barely made the cast list.
Honestly, every PM should be issued a shock collar that zaps them the moment they say “Let’s just AI it” without even a problem space drive-by.
We didn’t escape feature factories just to build bolted together Frankensoft products faster with cooler acronyms.
Just because building is easy now doesn’t mean judgment gets to be optional.
