API World + CloudX + Dev Innovation Summit 2024

Yishai Beeri, LinearB, CTO

GenAI has gone from generally available, novel technology to widely adopted in a matter of months. Most engineering organizations are using GenAI to generate code, write tests, and assist in code reviews. New code is becoming dirt cheap to write - but our delivery pipelines remain miserably unprepared for the tsunami of new code flowing at a much more rapid pace.

Our current pipelines need a hard reset to prepare us for the GenAI revolution - and engineering managers need to get started TODAY.

This talk will dive into where GenAI is starting to break down our delivery pipelines. While scaling CI/CD is easy, and we can always add a few more workers, scaling the humans in the process is the hard part. This talk will demonstrate how massive amounts of new machine-generated code will impact our pipelines, in ways that will require either greater headcount, or smarter, automated pipelines. You'll come away with ideas for how to modernize your delivery pipeline so you can fully embrace the GenAI revolution.
