Explore the chaotic intersection of AI agents and Java development in this 52-minute conference talk that serves as both cautionary tale and wake-up call about the agentic AI revolution. Dive deep into the brave new world of agentic workflows where AI has evolved from simple IDE assistance to autonomous agents that spawn in pipelines, pair program bugs, and refuse to write unit tests. Learn how to misuse Model Context Protocol (MCP) and Agent 2 Agent (A2A) to build agents that argue with each other, create agent swarms that autonomously refactor codebases into oblivion, and become a maniacal manager of tireless agentic employees. Discover the wild-west landscape of AI libraries, expensive agentic hosting services, and defacto protocols with no built-in security, all powered by LLMs that hallucinate with confidence using the latest Java 25. Gain a brutally honest, technically grounded, and entertaining perspective on how the Java ecosystem meets the AI agent revolution and understand why agentic AI represents a complete reshaping of the future development world.
