  • Why Understanding 'Why' Matters More Than 'How' in the AI Era w/ Olivier Soucy – Part Two
  • In Part Two, Greg McCallum and Olivier Soucy, founder of Okube, explore the evolving role of developers in a world dominated by AI tools and LLMs.
  • This episode isn’t just about new technology—it’s about a shift in mindset. From over-reliance on automation to the quiet erosion of creativity in software, Olivier breaks down what’s really happening under the surface of today’s hype cycle.

  • 🎧 In this conversation:
  • Why soft skills now matter more than technical fluency
  • The looming risk of homogenised software and cookie-cutter products
  • How data mismanagement derails innovation before it starts
  • The impact of AI agents on business operations
  • Why developers must stop chasing “how” and start understanding “why”
  • And the real risk of replacing vision with automation
  • If you’re building, hiring, or just trying to stay relevant in this next wave of AI-native development, this is essential listening.
