Spec-driven Development: How AI Changed Everything (And Nothing)

AI makes coding faster, but we're still stuck with the same old problem: code becomes the source of truth. What if we flipped this around?

This talk shows a new way to build software: the AI Unified Process https://aiup.dev. Write your requirements once. Let AI generate everything else - diagrams, models, code, and tests. When requirements change, everything updates automatically. No more outdated docs.
You'll see how to write requirements that AI understands and keep everything connected from business needs to working code. Based on a real-world project, we will see how this works in practice.

This isn't about replacing developers. It's about letting AI handle the boring stuff so we can focus on what matters - understanding what the business needs.

AI makes coding faster, but the real challenge remains: code keeps becoming the source of truth. In this talk, I’ll show a new way: requirements become the single source, and AI generates diagrams, models, code, and tests from them. When requirements change, everything updates automatically. No more outdated docs, just a direct link from business needs to working software. It’s not about replacing developers, but freeing them from the boring parts so they can focus on what really matters: understanding the business.
