• 7:50 pm: Talk: *Building Beyond My Skill Set Without Becoming AI’s Passenger*
Speaker: [Sonam Gupta](https://www.linkedin.com/in/sonamgupta11/?utm_source=luma), Developer Advocate at Telnyx Talk Description:
AI coding tools can help us build beyond our existing skill sets, but they can also make it easy to lose track of what our applications are actually doing.
In this talk, I’ll share how I first used AI to build my personal website despite not being a frontend developer, and how that experience gave me the confidence to build an internal AI tool for a sales team. I’ll walk through the architecture, the role of the knowledge base and memory layer, where vibe coding helped, where it created confusion, and the practical checkpoints I now use to stay in control of the development process. Attendees will leave with a realistic framework for using AI coding tools to move faster without becoming disconnected from the systems they are building.
