- "Measure AI Impact: Where do I stand?" with Tricia Gregg and AJ St. Aubin
- "Transform with AI-DLC: Am I transforming?" with Ryan Servais and Greta Heissenberger
- "Prove AI ROI: What is it worth?" with Taylor Morrel and Noah Flowers
- "How the best engineering teams win with AI" with Ryan Kuchova and Emily Dunn
In case you missed them, we have recapped them all here with videos for you to watch at your own time: jellyfish.co/blog/ai-impact-…

🔔 Just Announced: Nathen Harvey (DORA) & Laura Tacho (AWS) to host a Fireside Chat at AI Impact Week
Join them on Day 1 as they discuss the trends in how AI adoption, assistance, and agents are paying off across your teams. You'll hear them discuss topics like:
- What's the AI-adoption problem engineering leaders aren't admitting to yet?
- As AI takes over more of the day-to-day coding work, where do you expect bottlenecks to show up in 2027?
- Which metrics are quietly lying to engineering leaders right now, and what should replace or supplement them?
- As engineers grapple with the changing dynamics of their job, what can leaders do to keep them engaged and excited about the work?
- What's the one thing an engineering leader should measure or change this quarter, not next year?

Last week, we hosted The AIDLC Table in New York along with SpaceXAI and Liatrio, bringing engineering and technology leaders together to talk candidly about what they’re seeing inside their organizations.
No presentations. No pitches.
Just open conversations about what’s working...and where teams are still trying to find their footing.
Thank you to everyone who joined us and made the evening so engaging and informative.

How do you set durable DevAI goals given the complexity and rapid change in the space? The good news is, distinct “styles” of DevAI are becoming evident, providing a basis for setting expectations and goals. More on this idea: adamferrari.substack.com/p/p…
Kind of a wild observation from @andy_pavlo speaking on a @DBOS_Inc webinar: a year ago LLMs couldn’t do most of the assignments in his database course, but now they can solve most. An optimistic data point for AI taking on harder coding tasks.

AI coding agents are moving from hype to hands-on. ⚡️
Join @rbren_dev (@allhands_ai ) & @AJFerrari (@_jellyfish_co ) for a candid look at how agentic AI is transforming real developer workflows — from refactoring to team dynamics and leadership strategy.

For more than 10 years, the DORA report has shaped engineering leadership trends and metrics for an entire industry.
Now, as a Gold sponsor, Jellyfish is bringing the report’s insights to you first in an exclusive webinar on October 30, featuring the report’s lead author, Nathen Harvey.

Last month at the ELC annual conference, Krishna Kannan shared with attendees the AI Impact Framework - built in collaboration with 300+ engineering leaders and grounded in data from over 20,000 developers.
Now, you can watch the recording here: elc.community/public/videos/…
And download the framework here: jellyfish.co/resources/the-a…
The new DORA report is out: dora.dev/research/2025/dora-…! Come join DORA lead Nathen Harvey, myself, and the @_jellyfish_co team on Oct 30 to hear about the new insights that DORA has uncovered, and how to put these into action: jellyfish.co/events-and-webi…
Closing in on the end of the @MLB season, there’s only one team over .600 (Brewers, barely) and two teams under .400 (Rockies and White Sox). A “balance of powers” kind of year.
With a standard deviation of winning percentages around 0.144, that makes this an even more balanced year than 2014 (at 0.146 SD), but a little less balanced than 2007 (0.138 SD).
Is the “Great Flattening” in tech going to delete engineering management? adamferrari.substack.com/p/w…
More and more Engineering leaders I speak with have quickly graduated from “How do we get started with AI coding tools?” to the tougher question of “How do we actually measure the impact?” My latest post looks at this question adamferrari.substack.com/p/q…
Software is going through a massive transformation with AI coding. What will it all mean for professional software engineering? Jellyfish has been doing some amazingly interesting research on this. Come learn about it at GLOWLive on April 17 jellyfish.co/events-and-webi…

Whenever I’m cutting up and boiling a large Rutabaga it definitely feels a bit like a Star Wars food. Like Aunt Beru should probably be doing this. Wash down with some nice blue milk.
One of our amazing @salsify engineers, Erik, presenting at #GraphQLConf2021 right now, highlighting two of the highest sentiment elements of our dev stack: #GraphQL and TypeScript. Really highlights the continuing importance and value of typed languages.
