Code was never the bottleneck — and AI just made that impossible to ignore.

Writing code is now cheap, which changes everything except the code.
This interactive session takes one uncomfortable claim seriously: good engineering practices don't die under AI, they get sorted.

Whatever was merely a proxy for "more code, faster" loses its justification.
Whatever builds and carries an understanding of a system grows more valuable — because of AI, not despite it.
We'll trace this through three things every team wants right now: correct working code, costs under control, and enough experienced developers, with practical theories like Jevons' Paradox and Peter Naur's "Programming as Theory Building".
With interactive elements and concrete things you'll do differently on Monday.
