Where Humans Belong in Compound Engineering
Thu, Nov 511:30–11:50 a.m. ETClassroom—Floor 2
In compound engineering, humans are the bread, and AI is the filling of the Compound Sandwich: You decide what to build at the start and judge whether it’s good at the end, while agents do the planning, coding, and review in between. We’ll show the workflows we’ve handed fully to agents, the ones that still need a person, and how to tell the difference in your own work.
