Engineering with AI

Kyle Hodgson

"Engineering with AI" is a conversation with tech leaders about what their teams are doing, what coding tools they're adopting and how- in tiny startups, in bigger teams, and in large enterprises on their digital journey, and in digital native scale-ups. We're focusing on how things are different now; what "best practices" and cultural touchstones are holding up well, and which ones are changing. How do we staff teams differently now? How do we mentor? What processes are missing; which are feeling less worthwhile?
