For 3 years straight, the DevTernity conference listed non-existent Coinbase employees as featured speakers. When were they added and what could have the motivation been? Three featured speakers listed at DevTernity 2021, 2022 and 2023, and JDKon 2024. These people do not exist. A year ago, I spent months doing an investigative report on how UK events tech company Pollen had its staff work for free, as it had run out of money but still kept operating.

We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.

An exploration of the quantitative and qualitative impacts of Generative AI on software development. We’ve undertaken multiple experiments to better understand the impact of GenerativeAI tools (ChatGPT, Copilot) on developer productivity. Our quantitative results show a 37% improvement in productivity (speed), however, this result is a misrepresentation of what it means to be productive as a developer.

The rise of generative AI (gen AI) is inspiring organizations to envision a future in which AI is integrated into all aspects of their operations for a more human, personalized and efficient customer experience. However, getting the required compute infrastructure into place, particularly GPUs for large language models (LLMs), is a real challenge. Accessing the necessary resources from cloud providers demands careful planning and up to month-long wait times due to the high demand for GPUs.

Software leaders who are building applications based on Large Language Models (LLMs) often find it a challenge to achieve reliability. It’s no surprise given the non-deterministic nature of LLMs. To effectively create reliable LLM-based (often with RAG) applications, extensive testing and evaluation processes are crucial. This often ends up involving meticulous adjustments to prompts.
