I saw a job posting for Aha! which bills itself as #1 product development software. It seems to be a mashup of a Gantt chart, web forums, virtual sticky notes, document database and a Kanban looking board, and they mention "AI" near the bottom.

I'm not against it but the whole thing does look quite anti-Agile to me, which might not be a bad thing.

“Plans are useless, planning is everything.”

Agile means you can drop what you’re working on at the drop of a hat when you discover that something else is higher priority. It doesn’t mean you shouldn’t plan.

Aha and their ilk are basically fancy todo list apps. With any todo list, if you put too much stuff in there, you’re lying to yourself. That doesn’t mean you shouldn’t have a todo list.

Edit: people absolutely do put too much stuff in there though.

I Googled "online gantt tool" and there are whole companies that do nothing but Gantt charts. Pretty wild.
