Abstract
Development is experiencing a new phase of automation, similar to what we saw with DevOps. Numerous new tools are emerging, and it can be challenging to keep up with them. These tools, many empowered by agentic AI, are leading to new practices, and understanding the patterns of these practices will help you navigate the space of AI Native Development.
We'll dive in the following 4 patterns (backed with tool examples) :
- Producer → Manager : less typing, more reviewing and steering
- Implementation → Intent : describe the goal, let AI build
- Delivery → Discovery : test more ideas, faster
- Content → Knowledge : expertise becomes the edge, not just code
AI isn’t replacing developers : it’s changing where we create value. Conway's law highlights the socio-technical impact of tools. We'll go beyond the individual impact and highlight how teams and organizations might change in this new agentic world.
