A talk on why coding agents shift the bottleneck from code generation to CI, merge queues, review, and approvals, and how to redesign those systems around speed, automated repair, policy enforcement, and auditable records.
Madison Faulkner and Hugo Santos explain why traditional CI/CD, built for human developers, is failing under the load of AI agents. They propose a new paradigm of 'Continuous Compute' centered on intent-driven agent loops, fast inline validation, and a pre-merge layer where humans review outcomes, not diffs, paving the way for a 'multiverse' of parallel development.
