Learn to overcome the pitfalls of "vibe coding" with AI agents through this comprehensive conference talk that presents a practical framework for building maintainable, production-ready software. Discover how to move beyond the initial excitement of AI-generated code that works but becomes unmaintainable, and master a structured approach comprising principles, processes, and tools for effective AI-assisted development. Explore the common problem of creating brittle "demoware" when using low-spec, zero-planning approaches with AI coding agents, and understand why developers often find themselves throwing away code and feeling like "prompt jockeys" rather than engineers in control. Gain insights into a battle-tested framework distilled from years of engineering experience building real-world applications with AI coding agents, successfully implemented across teams from solo shops to Fortune 500 companies. Follow along as the speaker walks through the crucial "Make it Work" phase of software development, with clear connections to "Make it Right" and "Make it Fast" phases, covering planning strategies, implementation approaches, and essential tooling. Access downloadable slides, soundtrack, and additional resources to support your learning journey in becoming proficient at directing AI coding agents rather than being confused by their output.
