Story
CenterPoint Energy did not need another dashboard that nobody opened. It needed engineering to move. In the United States, developers already knew where software delivery went wrong: too many copies, too little ownership, and a close process that waited on the loudest inbox.
Assistants API from OpenAI is now in that path. OpenAI develops foundation models and ChatGPT Enterprise, used by companies to build assistants, analyze documents, and speed knowledge work. The company treats it as production tooling for engineering, which is why developers live in it rather than exporting from it once a quarter.
CenterPoint Energy can show how software delivery is handled today. That is the value: a repeatable way to run engineering on software the rest of the industry already recognizes.
