In this episode, we talk to Boaz Adato (Head of Engineering Guild) about how AI is changing engineering, the uneven impact of AI across new and legacy systems, and how workflows and team autonomy are evolving in practice.
🔍 In the episode:
- How AI adoption started (and why many engineers rejected it at first)
- What actually changed inside teams,. Workflows, roles, and ownership
- Why AI works great in greenfield projects but struggles with large codebases
- How non-engineers (finance) started building their own tools
- Why key engineering metrics (like PR throughput) haven’t improved as expected
- Wild guesses for 2026-2027
