Will AI Native Dev Follow Cloud Native's Path?
Each time such a technology is introduced, the easiest way to adopt it is to optimize steps within existing processes. Such optimization is easier as it requires less change - a team can take a process they’re already familiar with and make it better with the new tech. Furthermore, such change is local - meaning other teams don’t need to be involved, so the change is easier and faster to perform. Furthermore, it’s done within familiar boundaries - no big changes to org structures, ways of evaluating performance, ROI calculations, fewer approvals required… easy.
