Dex Horthy, CEO and co-founder of HumanLayer, argues that engineering teams shipping AI-written code still have to read it. This talk is for engineering leaders and developers building agentic coding pipelines who want to know where the lights-off software factory actually breaks down. His thesis: unattended models will not improve or maintain your codebase quality over time. Models got dramatically better in 2026 at solving problems. They did not get much better at architecture, abstraction, or centralization, and the cost of bad architecture is measured in months and years, not minutes.
