In this episode, the AI hosts unpack the growing tension between AI hype and real-world adoption in software delivery.
While AI is advancing rapidly, many leaders focus on bold claims, like replacing entire teams, without grounding them in metrics that matter. Leaders find it challenging to determine the right metrics to measure the impact of AI, as well as the success of AI adoption and investments. I challenge this narrative and explore how frameworks like Flow Metrics and developer sentiment can help teams measure AI’s actual impact on speed, quality, and effectiveness.
Instead of chasing vanity metrics or using AI as a shortcut to cut headcount, we explore how it can expand capacity and elevate team performance when applied with intention.

Bleep! with Ana Navarro
Fear thrives in silence and confusion. Ana Navarro rejects both. Her voice is an antidote to today’s chaos. Her new podcast, Bleep! with Ana Navarro, takes on today’s most pressing issues with the voices most connected to it: decision-makers, political leaders, cultural shapers, and people on the frontlines of the story. The conversations acknowledge the emotions we all feel—despair, sadness, fear— but emerge with knowledge, perspective, and hope. The belief is simple: fearless dialogue can transform fear into courage, and courage into change. When fear dominates the headlines, this show digs deeper. Because information, debate, and conversation don’t just ease fear, they give us power to shape the future.
