“I worked for Tony after he was asked to head up the Bay Area Technology group at marchFIRST. He pulled together a team of 200 technologists and designers from US/Web CKS and Whitman Hart to form an amazingly talented and highly profitable web services team during that chaotic time when marchFIRST was overstating revenues, gobbling up companies, and going bankrupt. Out of marchFIRST's bankruptcy, our group was the *only one* at the company to survive; we were quickly scooped up by SBI and merged with Razorfish. Parts of what we built back then survive today as Publicis' Razorfish. I think that speaks volumes about Tony's leadership and vision.”

We’re excited to partner with Cognition, the stellar crew behind Devin 🤖 and Windsurf 🌊, to make SWE agents more effective. Here’s the workflow: ✨ CoreStory extracts the hidden business logic, requirements, and complex behaviors in legacy codebases into a persistent spec. ⚡ You pass that spec as context and tasks to Devin, Cognition's Autonomous AI Software Engineer. 🚀 With the spec to navigate, the AI agent gets more powerful. It can modernize entire systems, or use the spec to field even more tickets with higher confidence. This is what the future of software engineering looks like: Human devs + AI agents, working side by side, with CoreStory fueling the spec. #AI #Agents #SpecDrivenDevelopment #LegacyModernization #CoreStory #Cognition

A new architectural pattern is emerging to enable AI scaling throughout the enterprise. The future isn’t limited to batch or streaming methods—it's a combination of both. This approach is unified, resilient, and AI-ready, featuring hybrid data integration that allows batch and streaming data to work seamlessly together. Shout out to Chandni Sinha for her recent blog on the capabilities of watsonx.data integration. Check it out to see where IBM Data, AI & Automation is taking modern data engineering for the future. https://lnkd.in/emW_D4rM

Must read piece from Sandra Carielli from Forrester. Sandy perfectly captures the need to go beyond human vs bot in an agentic world, and the need for "vendors that are pushing the boundaries of customer experience and business enablement use cases, must address a wider range of traffic sources (think human customers and their bots and AI agents acting on their behalf) and a broader set of use cases." It's not about blocking bots anymore, but designing safe experiences and business models around them.

I’m excited to share this insightful post from Madhu Kochar on the transformative role of APIs in today’s business landscape. As the leader of design for this product, I recognize the importance of evolving APIs to meet the demands of AI-driven integration. The exploration of self-describing, intent-grounded APIs by our chief AI architect, @nislam, highlights how they can empower autonomous workflows and AI-native development. This is essential reading for anyone involved in shaping the future of integration. #AI #Automation

Telos: The Shared Purpose At the highest level, both flavor architecture and dialogue architecture begin with telos—the intended value delivered to another human being. In flavor architecture, the telos is expressed through sensory experience: delight, nourishment, and emotional resonance. A chef does not simply combine ingredients; the chef begins by asking a guiding question: What experience should the diner have? Every ingredient, balance of flavor, and method of preparation is selected in service of that intended experience. In dialogue architecture, the telos is expressed through meaning: clarity, alignment, and intentional value. The architect of dialogue does not merely exchange words; instead, the guiding question becomes: What understanding should the listener gain? Concepts, questions, and narrative structure are organized intentionally to guide the listener toward a meaningful insight or shared clarity. Both systems therefore originate from the same foundational principle: the deliberate design of an experience for another human being. This is where the ethical dimension emerges. It reflects the spirit of the Golden Rule—to deliver value to others in the same way we would hope to receive it ourselves. Money measures exchange, but value measures impact. Flavor architecture delivers sensory value, shaping how a person experiences nourishment and delight. Dialogue architecture delivers cognitive value, shaping how a person understands, reflects, and aligns with meaning. Although their mediums differ—taste in one case and language in the other—their ultimate purpose is the same: to serve another human being well through intentional design. That shared purpose is their telos.
