Planning and feedback loops in extreme programming

Planning and feedback loops in extreme programming

TL;DR:

Using LLM in the software development process is shifting the feedback cycle to the top of the development cycle in the graph on the right. This is a costly endeavour.

LLM deliver output that is statistically likely, decreasing the chance to incorporate outliers as they are statistically unlikely but form the burden of software development.

Most of our tickets are now (initially) generated using Claude + the Atlassian MCP, and that’s allowed us to capture missed requirements up-front.

I think this is the key disconnect (even taking into account the notes from meetings) in understanding our jobs and why we’re not going away and why LLMs create harm in delivery.

Food for thought:

  2. [Wayback/Archive] /Fay-lee-nuh/ on Twitter: “What CS students (esp in engineering schools) are generally taught is what I call “Bob the Builder” science. The research question is “Can we fix it?” and the method is: “Yes we can, it is right there”.”
