🎤 Ash Gordon — Lessons Learned and Reflections on AI in Go Development
The presentation is about Frankie's use of Golang, how they use it, and how they've gone integrating AI into their development workflow, sharing what has worked well, and what hasn't.

Ashleigh has been with Frankie for a bit over 4 years, currently an engineering manager. Before that had experience with other languages such as Java and C#.
