Yes, LLMs can basically short-circuit the entire product design and development process if you want them to. You can write "Give me a goal tracking app" and pretty reliably one-shot it. Success?

I think a lot of folks would benefit from re-reading the Agile Manifesto [0]. Unfortunately in the corporate world, "Agile" became almost a perfect inversion of the original 12 principles, but in the age of AI, I think it's more relevant than ever. Back when you could only get through a handful of "user stories" per week, there was tremendous pressure on developers to prioritize the "right" ones, which led to more and more layers of planners, architects and delivery leads.

Now the feedback loop between the customer, business and developer is as tight as it always should have been.

That's decidedly not what the article or I said. This only works with carefully controlled context and that context replaces much of the previous SDLC. No one is talking about one-shot or even vibe coding.

As for agile, it was always ceremony (even says so on the tin) and can't die soon enough. A timed sprint makes no sense in an LLM environment. Just ship your damn software and stop having meetings. AI tools get us closer to XP, not agile.
