Sami Köykkä’s Post

Can software be done in a day? The short answer is yes. Together with ISS Palvelut, we initiated the world's first comparative study in a real consumer project to better understand the potential of GenAI. What did Marko Taipale and Sami Köykkä find out? A whole lot. In episode 1 of our series, we set out what's possible with GenAI, without the hype.

I remember us starting from this question: Can software (implementation of an idea) be done in a day? Yes, it can - but what does that mean.. We were set to explore how software development changes. Our perspective was looking the whole from end-to-end, from idea to impact in production. We did it in real customer case and reflected how AI-assisted team actually works compared to "typical Scrum teams". In this video series we talk about the journey, questions we asked ourselves and learnings along the way.

How does generative AI actually change the way we develop digital services? Check out the below.

🎤 Today, I had the pleasure of speaking at the Platform Galaxy event about my forthcoming book, ‘HBR Guide to Generative AI for Managers’ (Harvard Business Review Press) co-authored with Elisa Farri. When managers think about new platform-driven business models, they can leverage #GenAI at various stages of the transformation journey. 🤖 For example, managers can use GenAI as a ‘thought partner’ to: ✨ Reflect on the potential needs of the various sides of a platform business. 💡 Explore value exchanges and strategies to trigger network effects. 📈 Evaluate monetization options and tackle the chicken-and-egg problem. A big thank you to all the incredible speakers, hosts, and moderators who made this event special: 👏 Elizabeth J. Altman (UMass Lowell), Daniel Trabucchi Tommaso Buganza from POLIMI Graduate School of Management, Anna Noakes Schulze, Marina, and Milja van 't Noordende from TheNTWK (The Network) Ecosystem. If you missed the live event, don't worry! 🎥 You can watch the recordings and catch up on all the insights. #AIformanagers #HBRGuide #Capgemini #Capgeminiinvent 

For Tech Tip Tuesday, I thought I’d share this infographic I made based on last weeks presentation for #HEFEST, where I outlined a Top Ten (tips) for using GenAI in your academic life. :) I even used GenAI to make this infographic, with the image on the right CoPilots take on a bearded talk show host presenting a Top Ten list (in the style of David Letterman). Let me know what you think and if you want more details on any of these top ten tips and how to do them using GenAI, get in touch. :)

In this episode of Tech with Travis, we explore how AI is reshaping the job market and why uniquely human skills—like emotional intelligence, adaptability, and physical abilities—are becoming more valuable than ever. Joined by my trusty AI assistant, Carter, we dive into how the future of work isn’t about competing with AI but complementing it. From construction to healthcare, success lies in blending technical expertise with human connection. As we wrap up 2024, let’s embrace our humanity, invest in lifelong learning, and step confidently into an AI-driven world. Happy New Year—here’s to an incredible 2025! 🎉 https://lnkd.in/gMD-4hVn

Just the other day, I was reading a GeekWire article about Seattle's Mayor Bruce Harrell speaking at the opening of the "AI House" in downtown Seattle. In the cover photo's background, I noticed the logo I had created for the AI2 Incubator. As I read the article, I immediately noticed the abbreviated usage of the Allen Institute for Artificial Intelligence as "Ai2". Having been a long-time GeekWire reader, I found it odd that they would use this spelling instead of "AI2". I worked for AI2 from 2019 to 2020, and alongside Carissa Schoenick, went through an extensive rebranding process for AI2. I strongly advocated for using "Ai2" due to its visual clarity, but was unsuccessful. The argument against it was that "Artificial Intelligence" should not be incorrectly abbreviated, emphasizing our identity as a scientific research company committed to accuracy. Today, while reviewing my LinkedIn page, I noticed a strange pink logo in the AI2 portion of my work history. Confused, I refreshed the page, but it persisted. Things started to click. I investigated Ai2's posts and found their brand refresh announcement, explaining the shift from AI2 to Ai2. As a designer, seeing something like this evokes mixed emotions. There's elation that changes I felt were necessary have finally happened, even though I wasn't part of this particular update. The other emotion is trickier. Is it Anger, Jealousy, RAGE! Definitely not rage. It's probably closer to envy. 😅 Regardless, I'm genuinely pleased that Ai2 has rebranded and evolved from our previous design. The AI2 logo we created was a catalyst for change. While not perfect, it moved AI2 away from its original logo to something fresher. Now, Ai2 is embracing further change with a complete brand redesign four years later. So yes, I'm happy, proud, and a bit envious that I couldn't have designed a logo using Ai2 instead of AI2. Congratulations, Ai2! For those curious, here's a mockup of the 40 logo concepts I created back in 2019 during that rebranding process: https://lnkd.in/gC5YJVfg
