Why You Can't Build AI Without Progressive Delivery

Why You Can't Build AI Without Progressive Delivery

Former GitHub CEO Thomas Dohmke’s claim that AI-based development requires progressive delivery frames a conversation between analyst James Governor and The New Stack’s Alex Williams about why modern release practices matter more than ever. Governor argues that AI systems behave unpredictably in production: models can hallucinate, outputs vary between versions, and changes are often non-deterministic. Because of this uncertainty, teams must rely on progressive delivery techniques such as feature flags, canary releases, observability, measurement and rollback. These practices, originally developed to improve traditional software releases, now form the foundation for deploying AI safely. Concepts like evaluations, model versioning and controlled rollouts are direct extensions of established delivery disciplines.

Beyond AI, Governor’s book “Progressive Delivery” challenges DevOps thinking itself. He notes that DevOps focuses on development and operations but often neglects the user feedback loop. Using a framework of four A’s — abundance, autonomy, alignment and automation — he argues that progressive delivery reconnects teams with real user outcomes. Ultimately, success isn’t just reliability metrics, but whether users are actually satisfied.
