When it comes to delivering LLM-generated code with confidence, good luck with depending only on "good vibes." We know that LLMs hallucinate, and we know that they produce low-quality code. We also know that it's a bad idea to trust our ability to gate defects solely via reading or manually testing code. (It’s also slow.)

We can do better. In this talk, learn about AADV (AI-Assisted Development with Verification)--a simple but disciplined example-driven approach for generating code with an LLM. In this session, you'll see live demonstrations of generating code using an LLM. You'll be able to try the concepts behind AADV yourself the moment you leave the session.

In this session, you’ll learn about:

\* What exuding (bad) vibes gets you
\* Staying vigilant with the AADV prime directive
\* Generating code and tests with the simple AADV cycle of Create-Assess-eXecute (CAX)
\* Describing expected outcomes using examples
\* Improving quality with a style
\* Why design still matters in AADV

***You*** will still matter in the near-future of AI, as will most of your design and development skills. And you'll still have fun with it.
