Choosing an #AI model is not just about quality, speed, or token cost.
The real ROI includes the human oversight, rework, and downstream impact that follow. That is why strong evaluations and disciplined decision-making matter so much.
My team and I unpack this and more in the complete State of AI livestream. Watch the full conversation for the broader perspective on where AI is headed.
Should you choose an #AI model for every task, or should the system choose for you?
For interactive work, choice and budget visibility matter. For background agents, automation, and coding workflows, smart routing can remove friction.
Watch the full State of AI livestream for the discussion.
One of the things that stood out to me about IBM Bob is how it brings an enterprise ecosystem closer to the builder.
@_malcolmadams explains why having the right tools, security, and monitoring available in one development environment can make a real difference, especially as more teams start building with AI agents.

#AI should help leaders make clearer decisions and move faster, not add another system to manage.

ALT Promotional graphic for “The AI Powered Executive,” a live virtual workshop with Tracy Lee on Tuesday, September 29 at 11:00 a.m. ET. The workshop covers using AI across operations, marketing, and sales. Complimentary registration required at thisdot.co/ai-executive-workshop.
AI is changing how software gets built, but teams need more than tools. They need practical frameworks for adopting AI safely, scaling it effectively, and redesigning how humans and agents work together.
That is why I’m excited about This Dot Labs’ Agentic AI SDLC Accelerator Program.
In this workshop, we’ll cover how to:
• Future-proof software delivery with AI
• Build an AI-native engineering organization
• Transform team workflows with agentic AI
• Move from AI curiosity to real organizational capability
Join us October 20-21 or December 2-3, 2026.

It is one thing to build an AI agent. It is another to understand the impact it is having across your team and delivery process.
@_malcolmadams shared a great perspective on IBM Bob and the analytics behind it. I especially liked the idea that teams can use those insights to make smarter decisions about what they are shipping and where they are investing.

I keep thinking about this part of the conversation. We have moved so much work to the cloud, but development still often depends on being at a laptop.
@BrandonMathis and @GroundControl talk about what changes when agents and development environments can keep working independently.

A control plane should strengthen the way teams already build software.
In Part 3 of our Agent Control Plane series, @jonfontanez looks at practical integration: connecting agents to existing tools, engineering standards, and delivery workflows so the system scales with the team.
