Missed Session 2 of Ctrl+Shift?
Catch the replay of Human-in-the-Loop: Making GenAI Work for Engineers - our latest deep dive into where generative AI fits (and where it gets in the way) for real-world builders.
This session is built for engineering leaders and technical founders navigating how to integrate GenAI into their product and platform stack without disrupting how teams think, work, or ship.
Key themes:
Beyond code – How engineering roles are evolving to include system design and architecture fluency
Smarter prompting – How to write prompts like a developer, not a marketer
Tool selection – What to look for in LLM-powered tools before adding them to your stack
Common failure modes – Overreliance, hallucinations, and false confidence - and how to avoid them
With examples pulled from real teams and practical workflows, the session makes clear where GenAI creates lift - and where human oversight remains critical. Nik Patel shares tactical guidance for building leverage across your dev loop without losing control of quality, speed, or direction.
Key session highlights:
Why engineers are increasingly acting as system designers - and how that changes how GenAI is used
Preferred workflows and tools (including Agent MD) for getting repeatable results from coding assistants
Risks to watch for when scaling GenAI across multiple devs and environments
Where human-in-the-loop systems shine (and when to automate with care)
Duration:
1 hour 45 minutes (including live Q&A)
Speakers:
Bo Motlagh | Cofounder & Managing Partner
Nik Patel | AI Advisor
