The Constraints Will Move. You Have to Learn Your Way Into Them (AgileRTP)

Building software got much cheaper and faster with AI agents. Everything upstream and downstream of the software build portion has not. Instead of solely focusing on coding speed gains, we've spent the past year working on different bottlenecks in the value stream: faster decisions on what to build, writing better requirements, improved validation, and cutting out things we used to do just because that's how we did it. This is an experience-based talk rather than a framework discussion, covering where delivery bottlenecks transitioned to after coding got faster, what the speaker got wrong putting AI into the SDLC, and what was kept and cut from agile practices.
