THINKING / 07

Useful thinking
for building better.

Practical perspectives on AI platforms, web development, automation and the decisions that make digital products useful.

How is spec-anchored web development better than traditional methods?

AI can make development dramatically faster. A durable specification is what stops that speed turning into drift.

The best internal AI platforms start with the work, the people and the controls, not with a model.

A chatbot is an interface. A platform is a system. Choosing between them starts with the job you need done.

There is no honest single price, but there is a useful way to understand what drives the cost.

Buy the commodity. Build the differentiator. The difficult bit is knowing which is which.

Before asking what AI can do, remove the work that never needed intelligence in the first place.

Sometimes the most useful AI recommendation is not to use AI.

The businesses that get value from AI prepare the operating environment, not just the technology.
