Don't Go Off Vibes Part 2: Data on how AI is changing software development

​As AI reshapes the way engineering teams work, many organizations are still relying on outdated or misleading signals to measure productivity.

​In this sequel session, we will:

• ​revisit the pitfalls of proxy metrics — from PR counts to “token maxxing”

• ​refresh our first-principles approach to understanding true engineering impact in the age of AI

• ​share new stories and lessons from industry-leading organizations navigating different stages of AI maturity

• ​explore how companies like Ramp, Intercom, and others are investing in their technical foundations, developer workflows, and organizational systems to responsibly scale AI leverage across engineering teams

​Whether you joined us for the first session or are jumping in for the first time, this conversation will offer practical frameworks, real-world examples, and a grounded perspective on what engineering productivity should look like in an AI-native future.
