AI didn’t just change the tools. It changed the job.
Your engineers now spend more time specifying and reviewing than writing code. Your SDLC diagrams are relics. The playbook that got you here won’t get your team through the next two years.
Yet most leadership advice still assumes the old world: sprint planning, story points, hand-written PRs.
The SDLC is dead. Long live ADLC.
This newsletter is for engineering leaders ready to build what comes next — AI-native teams that ship faster with fewer people, without burning anyone out.
