About this event

  • Event lasts 55 minutes

Let’s be honest—AI is throwing us for a loop.

Things are changing so fast, it’s almost impossible to keep up. And let’s face it, "fake it till you make it" just isn’t cutting it anymore.

We’re overwhelmed. And we’re really nervous—not just about our jobs, but about the future of the world itself.

The only way through this? Stick together. And stay true to our brand: what makes us uniquely human.

Once we’re clear on who we are and the value we bring, we can redefine our relationship with AI—on our terms.

So, Human, meet Machine. We’ve got a lot to talk about.


The End of Agile? How AI is Rewriting Software Teams

What happens when Agile teams built for collaboration, iteration, and human-driven learning meet tools that can facilitate meetings, generate code, manage tickets, and make decisions?

In this live conversation with Snehal, CAIO of BoostaroAI, we’ll explore how AI is not just changing what software teams build, but how they organize, work, and produce value.

We’ll cover:

▪️ Why did the AI-Agile guy walk away from Agile?
We’ll explore Snehal’s surprising shift and what it reveals about the growing gap amongst Agilists concerning the realities of AI.

▪️ What does it actually mean to upskill in AI?
With vague advice and shifting goalposts, what skills matter for those in software development, how to build real understanding in those areas, and why vibe coding and Agent orchestration might be within everyone’s reach (technical or not!).

▪️ So are we heading for a mass layoff or an evolution?
From geopolitical tension to Bill Gates' bold predictions to Duolingo getting rid of contractors, we’ll dig into the real risks of AI to employees and what we must consider to adapt to a world of post-labor economics.

▪️ How do we stay human all this chaos?
The overwhelm and fear is real. As AI reshapes software roles, workflows, and team dynamics, how can we quiet the noise, embrace imperfection, and find our footing in an uncertain world?

Frequently asked questions

What is the format of this meeup?

This meetup will be an intimate conversation between two friends. You will get to be a fly on the wall and hear what people talk about behind the scenes. There will be 5-10 minutes at the end where the audience can ask questions.

How is this different than your previous meetup, Agile Conversations?

If you attended those in the past, welcome back! The format is the same, but the topic is fresh and relevant: AI and how humans are navigating this massive disruption.

What is the day and time of this meetup?

I am currently aiming for 12 noon Eastern Time. We will make every effort to end 5 minutes before the top of the hour so you can get to where you need to be next.

Will this be recorded?

Yes, this meetup will be recorded and lightly edited for clarity. If you cannot attend, please sign up anyway as the video will be emailed (perhaps with a few other goodies!) early the following week.

Does this meetup cost anything?

No. Although it takes time and effort to put together a meetup, at the end of the day, the value that these conversations bring to my life is priceless.
