The 5 Ingredients for Successfully Adopting AI Code Generation in Complex Engineering Environments

According to social media, it is well known that every software company in the world now uses agentic AI to write most of its code. But in reality, agentic code generation tools like Copilot and Cursor are making their way into engineering workflows at a pace that’s inversely correlated to team size and the complexity and sensitivity of the environment the code runs in.. This talk explores our learnings from working with companies of diverse sizes as they adopt, or attempt to adopt, agentic code workflows. Drawing on real-world examples from startups and enterprises alike, we’ll unpack the spectrum of approaches and share best practices to adopt the right tools for the right problem domain. We’ll share the cases where you should totally make agentic code generation work for you, where you can but it’ll be challenging, and when you probably shouldn’t, yet.
