Rene van Veldhuijzen: FOMO Sapiens and the Rise of the AI Empire
summary
Session lays out concrete risks: LLMs are already auto-writing product backlogs, Project Initiation Documents and requirements, image generators fail (20 tries to make a book cover, solved by 10 minutes in MS Paint), and self‑driving still trips on cones. Practical defenses include detection tools like GPTZero and Winston, and a four‑step mitigation loop named the ACME method (Anticipate, Control, Manage, Expand). Examples of working uses: image analysis for child‑exploitation detection, hospital predictive models, chat copilots; testing must be embedded in strategy and Definition of Done.
