Talk topics
From Smart AI to Real Usage
Why capability alone doesn’t create adoption, and how knowledge and guided journeys change the equation. Explore where users get stuck, how to connect AI to an existing workflow, and which signals distinguish a first experiment from repeat use.
Audience: product leaders & builders · English / HebrewKnowledge Base as a Product
A practical lens for turning scattered organizational knowledge into dependable context for AI. Discuss ownership, source quality, freshness, and access boundaries—and how to evaluate whether answers help people complete a real task.
Audience: PM, engineering & knowledge teams · English / HebrewProduct Management in the Autonomous SDLC
When implementation accelerates, intent, evaluation, and accountability become the product work. Explore how to define acceptance criteria, choose human review points, and connect AI-assisted delivery to customer value rather than output alone.
