57 - Why did Elon Musk replace Scaled Agile with MobAI? AI-Driven Collaboration - 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.

Joe Justice has supported Agile adoption in more than 20 countries. He has taught Scrum practices at organizations including Tesla, Google, Amazon, Microsoft, Boeing, Toyota, Rakuten, and Mercari.
