#AI #Research What I do in these situations is arrive at my #estimations for whatever the #situation is. And I run that one, and then I let AI do it without very many #guardrails. Just enough to stay in the playing surface. If they agree, within 10%-20% differentiation, I'm golden.

Estimates – a necessary evil?

Product Owner: Hey, how long do you believe Feature F will take? Developer: Idk. We haven’t even started working on it and it’s bound to stir up some old issues.

Peer: Can you do it in 4 months if I gave you 5 engineers?
Me: Now that we are haggling over Okra, can you sell me eggs at $1 a dozen?
Peer: Let's go talk to our CEO. He needs to know
Me: Sure. Even if you bring Donald Trump in the room, my answer will not change

Conversation with a peer today
Peer: We have a new RFQ to write
Me: About?
Peer: CPQ
Me: Ok. I looked at the videos and requirements you sent me
Peer: And?
Me: 6 months minimum
Peer: That's too much. This has to be finished in 2 months
Me: Nope!!! Even if you clone me into 5 people it will not happen. With the shitty engineers we have, I'd say a year
