Tech Talk : Validate Your Code at the Speed You Generate
Speaker: Ryan Hamilton (Senior Developer at CircleCI)
Abstract: In this talk, I will walk through what the data actually says about the AI-era SDLC: what broke, why, and what a new infrastructure pattern looks like. I will cover the validation bottleneck in concrete terms (including a new metric, the Merge Efficiency Ratio), explain why running AI agents through legacy CI creates compounding cost and latency penalties, and discuss the emerging solution stack — Chunk sidecars for inner-loop microbuilds, a CLI rebuilt for agent-first feedback, and an MCP server that brings CI context directly into your coding agent.
