Explore the future of untethered software development in this 32-minute keynote that demonstrates how AI-native tools are dissolving the traditional boundaries of when and where developers can create software. Learn from Zack Proser's innovative daily workflow that combines desk-based coding with productive development sessions during woodland walks. Discover how voice-to-code conversion at 179 words per minute using Wispr Flow, collaboration with Cursor Agents, and OpenAI's advanced voice mode enable a peripatetic approach to programming where significant coding progress happens away from traditional workstations. Examine the security and trust mechanisms that make mobile development viable, including agent sandboxes, CI/CD scans for blast radius limitation, automated pull request validation, and authenticated voice calls through trusted identity systems. Understand how personal context from devices like the Oura Ring can enhance AI systems while maintaining strong data flow guardrails. Experience live demonstrations combined with trail footage that illustrate this emerging paradigm of AI-augmented development, offering insights into balancing creative freedom with security requirements in modern software development workflows.
