AI is changing how software gets built, and it’s not subtle. Coding agents, long-term memory, and context-aware workflows are reshaping what developers actually do day to day.

Mitch Ashley and Brad Shimmin break down how AI is altering planning, specifications, and project structure, why traditional APIs are struggling, and what happens when agents start managing more of the work. They also dig into how developer roles are shifting and which skills still matter as software engineering enters its next phase.

No hype. Just what’s breaking, what’s working, and what comes next.
