[Lighting Talk] Your Next Developer Is an AI Agent. Are You Ready? | ESPC26

AI coding agents are changing how developers discover, evaluate, and use technology. Instead of developers choosing SDKs, reading documentation, and following examples, agents increasingly make those decisions for them. But what happens when agents get it wrong? Welcome to Agent Experience (AX).

In this lightning talk, we’ll explore what Agent Experience is, why it matters, and how it changes the way we build and document technology. Drawing on real-world evaluations of AI coding agents, we’ll look at common failure patterns and introduce a practical approach to measuring and improving AX.

You’ll leave understanding why building for developers now means building for the agents they use, too.
