Artificial intelligence has arrived in our editors. And with it, a new reality.

Some ignore it, some try it with caution, others fear it.

It writes code for us… but can we really trust it?

Does it truly understand what we want?

Or are we blindly delegating, risking to lose our way — or worse, to become irrelevant?

Now, imagine a different scenario.

Imagine you are the one guiding AI.

Imagine starting from desired behaviors, as TDD teaches, and letting AI suggest edge cases, prepare the groundwork, give you a first draft.

And then… it’s you who refines. Who makes conscious decisions.

And above all, who uses tests as anchor, as lighthouse, as shield.

Because tests don’t lie. Tests give you control.

In this session, I’ll show you a new — and practical — way of developing software:

- How to write tests first and make AI your ally, not your replacement.
- How to let AI generate complex edge cases we often overlook.
- How to turn TDD into a strategic guide to validate (and lock in!) AI-generated work.
- How to maintain technical authority in a world where AI “suggests everything.”

This isn’t science fiction — it’s a mindset shift.

A practice that lets you achieve more with less friction, raise your code quality, and stay at the center of your craft.

This session is your first step not just to survive, but to lead in the new AI-powered era of software development.

AI won’t replace you. But someone who knows how to use it might. Join this session and stay in control.
