57 - Why did Elon Musk replace Scaled Agile with MobAI? Collaboration in the era of AI - With Joe Justice

New challenges and new possibilities created by AI call for new
ways of working. Traditional agile frameworks reach their limits
when products evolve in minutes, data is available instantly and
decisions need to be made in real time. MobAI responds to exactly
these conditions. In this episode, Joe Justice explains how MobAI
emerged and why companies across industries are exploring this
AI-native approach to collaboration and rapid
problem-solving.Tell me, Joe – why did Elon Musk replace Scaled
Agile with MobAI?


In this episode, we talk about




why MobAI puts human judgment, creativity and ethics at the
center while AI accelerates data access and decision-making,




how ultra-short release cycles make meetings and static
artifacts less relevant,




what the “Justice Board” is and how real-time KPIs guide
teams without overhead,




how the three initial roles — driver, navigator and mobAIs —
support learning and quality,




and why intensity, rotation and short timeboxes create both
focus and sustainable performance.




A conversation about collaborative problem-solving, AI-native
ways of working and the future of team dynamics.
