"Findings from the 18th annual , published by Digital.ai, suggest the methodology has reached a "major turning point" as AI moves from being a "supportive tool to an orchestrator" in delivery cycles. "Artificial intelligence is transforming software development and delivery faster than any wave before it," Digital.ai CEO Derek Holt commented. "In the last three years, AI has moved from research labs into every corner of the enterprise, reshaping how we plan, build, test, secure, and release software.""
"AI adoption among respondents has surged from 64% in last year's edition to 84% this year. With questions over return on investment (ROI) looming, IT leaders are being pushed to both justify investments in the technology and deliver positive business outcomes. Running parallel to this AI ROI focus is rising pressure on tech leaders and developer teams alike to deliver ROI with Agile itself. More than three-quarters (76%) of respondents cited "increased scrutiny" on whether the methodology produces tangible benefits."
