AI has made building software dramatically faster. Things that took weeks can now take days, sometimes hours. Yet government delivery still follows the same Discovery, Alpha and Beta phases, with the same timelines and expectations. Does that still make sense?
 
In this session we'll explore where AI genuinely makes a difference, what still takes time, and how we might get from idea to working service differently. And we'll show you, not just tell you: our Senior Technical Lead Harry will build a government service live using AI while we talk, and we'll see how far he gets.
 
User research, testing and assurance still matter. But if building has changed, should the way we organise around it change too?
