[Executive Dinner] AI and the Productivity Paradox

AI is dramatically lowering the cost of building software. Teams are shipping faster, experimenting more, and building things that were never worth building before. Yet many engineering leaders are discovering a paradox: as output increases, operational load, complexity, and pressure on teams rise just as quickly.

Join us in San Francisco for an exclusive dinner as we explore how productivity really changes in AI-enabled organizations—and what it takes to scale sustainably.

Key discussion topics include:

1. Shipping faster vs. operating more

How AI-driven speed often shifts effort from building to running systems.

1. AI-driven output and hidden complexity

When more software quietly increases dependencies, failure modes, and tech debt.

1. Productivity beyond velocity

What leaders measure when “more shipped” no longer equals more impact.

1. Leadership judgment in AI-augmented teams

Where human decision-making still matters as AI takes on execution.

1. Designing for sustainable scale

Rethinking ownership, reliability, and recovery before growth creates fragility.

This invite-only event is designed to create an intimate space for you to meet with a small peer group of high-caliber engineering executives to discuss challenges, exchange best practices, expand your professional network and more. 

We hope to see you there!
