Agile Thought Leaders Create, They Don’t Copy-Paste

With the introduction of ChatGPT and other AI tools, anyone can be an instant expert. It is better to be an agile thought leader than mindless copy-pasting.

With the introduction of ChatGPT and other AI tools, the ability to generate content is open to everyone. Is that a good thing, or does it simply encourage more copy-pasting and less original thought?

Isn’t it more important to have true “creation” and be an agile thought leader than mindless copy-pasting?

I’ve written over 300 agile-related articles and two books in the last 10 years. Creating is something I enjoy, and it is something that I am good at.

The inspiration for my writing comes from my work with Teams, other Coaches, Scrum Masters, Product Owners, and Leaders. I see what is working, and more importantly, I can see where things are not working. And what could be done to improve.

Often when things aren’t working, it is because someone has misunderstood or misapplied an agile principle or practice. I see that as an opportunity to explain the principle better or highlight the difference.
