Agenda:
Lecture #1: AI Won’t Save You - Your Process Will
Most teams are already using AI - but without the right process, they capture only a fraction of the value it can deliver.
This session gives you a practical, team-wide framework for Spec-Driven Development that turns Claude and OpenAI Codex from a faster way to type code into a real multiplier for how your whole team thinks, plans, and ships.
Shahar Polak is Head of Engineering at ImagenAI, where he leads a team of 40+ engineers building AI-powered products, with over 20 years of experience and a past role as founding engineer at BreezoMeter (acquired by Google). He lectures on AI development at the Technion and Reichman University, co-hosts Israel's #1 ranked tech podcast "Developers Outside the Box," and authored "The Startup Guide to the Galaxy”.
Lecture #2: Tal Belahusky - Stop writing requirements. Start building proofs.
For decades, teams wrote a document to describe a product before building it. That document was always a guess about work nobody had done yet, and you usually found out where it was wrong only after engineering had already shipped it. Now AI can build the real, working version faster than you can write the spec for it. So why write the spec at all? This talk ends with a live build on stage.
Tal Belahusky leads product for Chargeflow Connect, the platform business that builds chargeback handling into payment platforms, software products, and merchants of record. He builds working versions of many of the ideas he ships, from API sandboxes to prototypes, which is why this talk ends in code rather than slides. Before Chargeflow, he was one of the first product hires at four early-stage startups across very different fields: logistics (Flymingo), developer tools (Lunar.dev, where he was on the founding team), healthcare (Medix Global), and enterprise innovation (prooV). Earlier, he founded and grew a company of his own. He writes at productisdead.com about the past, present, and future of the product role.
