They struggle with missing intent, non-expressive code, and surprising dependencies. Historically, we were supposed to write code for human readers, code that fits our cognitive limits and supports collaboration. In reality, much of our industry has fallen short. That comes back to bite us. When AI agents enter the development loop, they amplify those same problems. Where a human developer will ask questions and seek clarification, an AI often proceeds without it, making its best guess from patterns in code that was never designed to be unambiguous. Code that is hard for humans to understand becomes unreliable for AI. In this talk, Adam Tornhill shows how to turn that around. You’ll learn the key principles behind AI-friendly code and apply…
