Your story and the article’s thesis that AI is for acceleration and automation (not other things like design/intelligence) remind me of one particular CEO’s five step product process:
1) design smart(er) requirements- I.e beat up the ask and rewrite the problem statement correctly. 1B is every requirement has a persons name attached who is traceable/responsible for its inclusion- not a department.
2) delete features you don’t need or which are hedges (if you aren’t adding back 10% of the time, then you aren’t deleting enough)
3) simplify or optimize. This step must come after 1 and 2 so you aren’t wasting effort optimizing the wrong thing
4) accelerate
5) automate
This way is very clear where AI plugs in- and more importantly, WHEN it plugs in.
Also, plenty of times people try to run this process backwards, with poor outcomes.
