Keynote at the CTO Forum of the Rudolf-Diesel-Medaille. Hosted by Zühlke, Munich
We Are Living in the AI Hype Era # AI is dominating headlines. From natural language interfaces to automated code generation, the pace of development is relentless. But alongside this excitement, we are seeing inflated promises, rushed implementations, and disappointing returns.
Should we open-source our internal developer platform? That is the question I brought to the audience during this talk. Instead of a traditional presentation, I gave a live demo of the Zühlke Platform Plane and then opened the floor for an honest discussion about the benefits, risks, and realities of open-sourcing a commercial platform product.
In August 2025 I will release my new book, The Cybernetic Enterprise: How to Build a Future-Ready Organization.
