AI coding agents are moving faster than product teams can keep up. What needs to change?
Hannah Foxwell shares 3 anchors for navigating AI-driven velocity:
🎯 Build something worth building
🛡️ Speed requires safety
👥 People matter
➡️ Watch now: buff.ly/hlLsuSv
#AICodingAgents write code faster. But 79% of engineering leaders say overall release speed hasn't improved.
Why the gap?
➡️ 16.9 hours/week spent debugging AI-generated code
➡️ 35% of AI code reaches production before teams fully understand it

What is an ontology, and why is #Netflix using one for observability?
An ontology encodes meaning through simple Subject-Predicate-Object triples, helping connect data and make it more useful for enterprise AI.

Grab migrated its high-volume Counter Service to #Aerospike, cutting p99 read latency by ~50%, disk usage from 3 TB to 1 TB, and cost per node by 45–50%.
How? Storage abstraction, shadow traffic, data parity checks, gradual migration, and a redesigned data model.
Olimpiu Pop facilitates the five-week cohort. It starts November 17 and meets online for two hours each Tuesday and Thursday.
Participants compare team and workflow patterns, examine delegation to AI, reassess useful metrics, and bring the decisions together in a target operating model.
Team structure, delivery flow, AI roles, and metrics constrain one another.

Katharine Jarmul facilitates the confidential peer group. The program starts October 26 and meets online for two hours each Monday and Wednesday.
The cohort covers sensitive-data flows, STRIDE, LINDDUN, Plot4AI, controls and sandboxes, observability, evaluations, governance, and auditing.
In the InfoQ AI Security & Privacy Engineering Program, you can bring a current AI security or privacy problem to map, threat model, red team, and test.

5 practitioners building, securing & running AI systems join a free live #InfoQ panel on Oct. 14 at 11 AM ET.
They’ll discuss:
→ Human approval for AI agents
→ Reviewing AI-generated changes
→ AI data access
→ RAG beyond the demo
Can’t make it live? Register for the recording.
Decades of software management taught us one rule: developers will always have more work than time.
AI velocity just broke that rule.
Teams are now moving so fast they’re outpacing their pipelines - and running out of qualified work to build.

I chatted to Olimpiu Pop on the @infoq.com Podcast about this year's QCon London security track, and some plans for next year's.
We talk about hardware (#CHERI), #CRA and #SBOM, #postquantum_cryptography and of course #LLM and #AI
In this article, Aditya Mulik explains how treating the #LLM stack as platform infrastructure reduced hallucinations from 15% to 1.5% in a production inventory recommendation system.
→ Prompt registry & versioning
→ Schema enforcement & retry loops
→ Token cost attribution
Akka tested a spec-driven AI porting workflow across 65 open-source projects:

➡️ 99.3 hours
➡️ 57 ports with fewer lines
