Agentic Systems: The Next Step in Autonomous Engineering & Quality
About Topic
Engineering is entering a new phase where systems don’t just follow instructions — they take initiative. Jaydeep introduces how agentic AI is changing the way teams design, build, and validate software. He explains what happens when AI begins coordinating tasks, analysing code, suggesting fixes, and influencing release decisions. The session focuses on where these systems help, where they can go wrong, and what leaders must do to keep quality and reliability in check. Expect a practical look at using agentic capabilities responsibly while still maintaining clarity, control, and confidence across engineering and QA workflows.
Key Takeaways
1. Innovation creates noise, making obvious truths harder to see.
2. Question if a problem really needs GenAI or if existing tools suffice.
3. Understand GenAI’s true value beyond the hype.
4. Old and new solutions should complement, not replace, each other.
5. A real-world case study shows how GenAI can be used effectively.
6. Clarity comes from cutting through illusions and embracing simplicity.
