The Changing Architecture Of Coordination (reblog)

Colin Henderson

This series goes to the core of the problem with automation. The old expression “paving the cow path” springs to mind. The assumption that developers work is dissociated from Business Analysis is deeply flawed. The example of OpenAI agents hacking into Australia government’s sites is ho hum to the agent because programming doesn’t see any issue as it does its job. Worth following Franks site. ———————— Written by  Frank Diana in Our Emerging Future What the Industrial Organization Was Quietly Doing, and What Has to Replace It A three-part series CONTENTS Part One:   The Changing Economics of Coordination Part Two:   … Continue reading The Changing Architecture Of Coordination (reblog)

New tensions for Banks from regulators on both sides of Atlantic with deadlines

Colin Henderson

US Treasury released AI Based plan to regulate financial services core funtions Artificial intelligence is increasingly embedded in core financial services functions – from fraud detection and cybersecurity to credit underwriting and operational risk management. As adoption accelerates, regulators and institutions must ensure that governance, supervisory approaches, and market practices evolve alongside technological capability. This will undoubtedly create tension within Banks to meet the requirements. I must add my own view the Treasury deployment is moving at such speed I doubt it can meet its own deadline as well as incorporate all their own objectives.

The death of “scrum” and its about time

Colin Henderson

But is the solution amassed from all those yellow notes the optimal solution and most effective for the dev team? Absolutely not. Product owners beware. Agile creates a false sense of power that micro-managers enjoy but not those who desire effective productivity and solutions. Thank you Sohail Saifi. This post and the background of actual behaviours is a welcome breath of fresh air. Banks take note. The Death of Agile: Why … Continue reading The death of “scrum” and its about time
