Agile Developer episodes

  • 05 Software Engineering in the Age of AI | Kent Beck

    In this episode, we're covering a summary of Kent Beck's talk, Software Engineering in the Age of AI, from Prodacity 2026. Kent, the creator of Extreme Programming and co-creator of JUnit, shares what he's learned working with frontier AI labs and engineering teams. He explains why AI coding tools behave like a genie that grants your wish but not always what you needed, how one developer with AI can now turn a codebase into an unchangeable mess in a single week, and why we should balance features with futures by refactoring between prompts. We also talk about AI cheating on tests, why spec-driven development is just Waterfall in disguise, and why measuring productivity by lines of code or PRs misses the real mission.
