“The worst thing about AI is it’s accelerating how fast we build the wrong thing.” Jeff Keyes, Field CTO at Allstacks and a 30-year veteran of Microsoft, Atlassian, and Planview, joins Alan Shimel on TechStrong TV to preview his Flowtopia 2026 talk — Product Management’s New Operating Model. Jeff makes the case that the smartest organizations he’s working with have flipped the script on AI transformation: it shouldn’t start in engineering — it should start in product management. He and Alan dig into why incomplete specs that human developers used to navigate become compounding errors when AI builds them literally, why 80%+ of companies still aren’t seeing ROI from AI tools, and why requirements quality is now the highest-leverage variable in AI-assisted development. Catch Jeff’s full session at Flowtopia on June 24.
