  • When the Code Writes Back

    Navigating Confidence, Confusion, and Control
    12:20 - 12:50 UTC | Wednesday 12th November 2025 | Bristol 1

    What happens when software starts to write software? As coding agents evolve from assistants to autonomous creators, a new engineering discipline emerges. This talk explores what it means to build and steer these systems, where context shapes behaviour, guidance replaces direct control, and environment design becomes a core skill. We’ll examine the mindset shift required when code starts reasoning autonomously.
