01コンセプト
Fast Alone,
Far Together.
AI is no longer just a coding assistant. It is transforming the entire development lifecycle, from planning, design, and architecture to testing and review. This conference shares practical approaches to an AI-first SDLC.
We will cover seamless agent-building experiences, the design and operational practices needed to move beyond PoCs into production, and the management and governance essentials that support continuous adoption.
