AI Engineering Porto #2: Who Still Reads the Code?
Is spec-driven development the answer to better AI-assisted code reviews?
Rui Silva is an AI Engineer at PowerHive. He opens the session with a lighter way to review AI-assisted code: agree on the spec, then ship.
Then José Pedro Silva, R&D Director at Critical Manufacturing, joins him for a discussion. It asks the harder question. If the spec is right, do we still need to read the code?
How the session works
When you arrive, add a question or a problem you're stuck on to the wall. Then there's the talk, with proper time for questions. After that, the guests answer questions from the wall. Whatever we don't get to feeds the next sessions.
