Pair Programming 2.0: AI Agents are Changing the Way We Think About Code

Are we shifting away from the traditional two-keyboard setup? The landscape of collaborative coding is undergoing a seismic shift, driven by the emergence of intelligent AI agents as invaluable pair programming partners. This talk explores how these agents are fundamentally changing the way we develop and conceptualize software. We'll walk through the core tenets of "vibe coding" – the art of effectively instructing AI through natural language – and uncover the essential skills needed to leverage this exciting new paradigm. Finally, we'll glimpse the future with multi-agent systems, where autonomous communication and reasoning unlock unprecedented potential for tackling complex development challenges. You'll leave with practical strategies for integrating AI agents into your workflow and a fresh perspective on the evolving developer-AI relationship.
