Session
Software engineering is undergoing its most radical shift since the move to Cloud. As AI assistants evolve from writing simple snippets to suggesting entire system architectures, the line between human-authored and machine-generated code is blurring. However, this newfound speed introduces a new breed of technical debt and ethical risk. How do we evolve our day-to-day practices without losing our grip on security, maintainability, and accountability?
This session will explore the transition from Human-Driven to AI-Driven Engineering. We will ask the hard questions and discuss practical strategies for: how to manage "synthetic debt," redefine peer reviews for AI-generated code, and ensure that 10x velocity doesn't bypass safety.
We will explore a series of community-driven practices designed to maintain quality while navigating the move from "experimental" to "operational" AI.
