Is AI Really Making Software Cheaper?
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
AI can make writing code faster, but what happens to the work that follows? In episode 116, the ACN community shares experiences with growing demands on testing, security, maintenance, and support, alongside pressure to add features simply because they’re easier to build. The conversation explores smaller increments, human judgment, and governance that actually guides what agents do. There’s promise in faster experimentation, but the overall payoff remains an open question. How can teams use the time AI saves to create something valuable? The episode also includes a remembrance of ACN cohost Sheila McGrath.
Join Shawna Cullinan, Jörg Pietruszka, Diana Larsen, Sheila Eckert, Sheila McGrath, April Mills, Hendrik Esser, Ray Arell, and all the callers to the monthly live event as we explore this topic. For details on the next live event or how to support our show, please visit acnpodcast.org.
