The Model Shift : Software Factory Edition

​The Model Shift is back! This edition is about the Software Factory: what happens when AI agents stop being just coding assistants and start running the whole software pipeline, from spec to code, review, test and ship.

​We're bringing together engineers, founders, product leaders and investors who are building that future, to talk about how they do it, show working demos, and meet each other.
