Fordel StudiosAI’s software development success and central management needs
What Happened
A survey carried out by OutSystems, The State of AI Development 2026 [email wall], argues that AI has moved into early production phase for many enterprises, primarily inside the IT function. The survey was based on the responses of 1,879 IT leaders, and warns that adoption of AI is in danger of run
Our Take
Look, this survey by OutSystems isn't selling us a dream; it just confirms that AI's bleeding into IT is chaos. 1,879 IT leaders are involved, and they're worried about runaway adoption. The real problem isn't the tech; it's the complete lack of central management. You can't just let dev teams deploy autonomous agents without some kind of central governance structure, or we're just setting ourselves up for a massive security and operational mess.
What To Do
Establish mandatory, centralized governance frameworks for all enterprise AI deployments immediately.
Builder's Brief
What Skeptics Say
OutSystems sells low-code platforms, giving them direct financial incentive to frame AI adoption as requiring the kind of centralized management their products provide; the survey skews toward enterprise IT buyers, not the engineers actually shipping code.
