Post-Framework Frontends in the AI Era & Why AI-Generated Code Still Needs You.

Talk: 1 - Sharan Selvaraj Post-Framework Frontends in the AI Era: Living Specs (SDD), Declarative Agent Protocols, and Framework-Agnostic Compilation.

Description: Unconstrained code generation by AI agents introduces semantic drift, fragile hook dependencies, and deep framework lock-in. This talk presents an architectural shift: abstracting the frontend framework from an authoring environment into an execution or compilation target. Sharan Selvaraj

Talk: 2 - Ajay Kumar Singh The Judgment Gap: Why AI-Generated Code Still Needs You.

Description: Advancements in AI are changing how engineering teams build and operate production systems, but most failures aren't in the code AI generates - they're in the judgment around it: what to trust, verify, escalate, and own. This talk walks through real engineering examples - production issues and security issues - examining what happens when AI-assisted work ships without sufficient verification, and what changes when the same work is done with discipline.
