Some of the biggest names on Google's AI team got new jobs this week. In some cases, including for legendary Googler Jeff Dean, those jobs are no longer at Google. Given that Google's models seem to be behind the best of what's coming out of anthropic and OpenAI, is this a sign of Google in […]

"Most people have completely forgotten how chaotic it really was."

The Scenario Every Developer Recognizes It is mid-2026, and you have a feature to ship. You open ChatGPT or Claude, type something like "build me a function that parses webhook payloads and routes them to the right handler," and wait. The model returns something plausible. You paste it in, run it, and it almost works. So you prompt again: "fix the edge case where the payload is missing the event key." Another round. Then another. Forty-five minutes later, you have code that functions, but you also have a conversation thread that looks like a debugging session rather than a build session. You never actually described what you were building. You just started building it. This is the default mode for most developers using AI coding assistants in 2026, and it is expensive. According to McKinsey's State of AI in 2024 report ( source ), organizations that adopt structured design and planning approaches before implementing AI tools report higher success rates and better integration outcomes compared to those using ad-hoc implementation strategies. The pattern holds at the individual developer level too. Jumping straight into prompting skips the step that makes prompting useful: knowing precisely what you want before you ask for it. The fix is not a better model. It is a different sequence. What Design-First Actually Means in Practice Design-first means producing a written artifact that describes your system before you write a single prompt asking an AI to build it. Not a full technical document. A tight, structured description of inputs, outputs, constraints, and edge cases. Think of it as the brief you would hand to a contractor before they start work. The contractor analogy is useful because it reframes the relationship: you are not collaborating with the model in real time, you are commissioning it with a clear scope. Here is what that looks like concretely. Instead of opening Google Gemini and typing "help me build a webhook router," you spend ten minutes writing this
