AI Workshop April 22 - ONLINE 🛜

Most teams struggle to make AI hold up across the full workflow.

Where things tend to break:
• Output is faster, but PR reviews become the bottleneck
• Tests get pushed later or skipped entirely
• Context gets lost, and outputs become inconsistent
• More rework shows up downstream instead of less

What we’re focusing on April 22:
• How teams are tightening review processes to keep up with AI speed
• Pulling testing earlier so quality doesn’t slip
• Generating docs from real work instead of after the fact
• Structuring context and guardrails so outputs stay reliable
• Where agents actually fit into day-to-day engineering workflowsIf your team is past experimentation and trying to make this work in practice, this is the conversation.

Led by Elliott Fouts (CTO & CAIO, This Dot Labs)

Sora shutting down comes down to one thing: cost vs return.

If the output doesn’t justify the spend, it doesn’t matter how impressive the demo is.

That’s the pressure every team is starting to feel right now.

Thursday, we’re getting into how that plays out inside real engineering orgs. Where AI is actually worth it, where it’s not, and what teams are changing to make the numbers work.

If you’re being asked to make AI make sense for the business, this is the conversation.

April 9 · 12:30–2:30 PM EDT

Featuring
Tracy Lee, CEO
Elliott Fouts, CTO
Brandon Mathis, Engineering Lead
Coston Perkins, Engineering Lead
Jonathan Fontanez, AI Engineering Lead

Most organizations are using AI to speed up existing workflows.

The problem is those workflows were not designed for AI in the first place, so the impact tends to be incremental, not transformative.

On Thursday, April 9 (12:30–2:30 PM EDT), we’re hosting a State of #AI conversation focused on what actually needs to change for AI to deliver real results.

We’ll cover:
• what AI-first workflows look like across planning, development, and delivery
• where teams are seeing measurable improvements in speed and quality
• why simply adding AI tools does not change outcomes
• what it takes to move from experimentation to consistent, repeatable impact
