AI LLM inference evaluations tokens slop 

## Terminology

- Do you know what an LLM is? a brief introduction
   - neural networks
   - a stateless machine
   - the memory problem (what is a context window)
   - outdated by definition
   - lacks the "world" model, doesn't comprehend consequences
   - harness to support training
   - harness to support inference 

## What is vibe-coding?

- if human is not in the loop it's vibe coding
  - never look at the generated code
  - just use strong, iterative prompting

What are the problems:

- allucinations (provide an example)
- maintainability (provide an example)
- security (provide an example)
- IP related risks
- individual cognitive risks
- team cognitive load

Engineers are so dramatic!

## Automatic coding

Show different levels of interaction with coding agents:

for each, mention limitations

- Phase 1: automatic code completion
- Phase 2: copy-paste from a chat prompt
- Phase 3: chat agent integrated in the IDE
- Phase 4: multi-agent orchestration
- Phase 5: full Spec-driven development (still a myth)

## Demo Claude code

- skills: Opticodds fixtures
- hooks: avoid exposing credentials to context

## The AI SLOP: are we ready to deploy to production without reviews?

without any specific discipline, AI slop will "help" in the following ways:

- inbalance between code creation and code review
- noise is being introduced and consistency is quickly lost
- team specific expertise will decline

## What a wise AI/coding strategy looks like then?

- let's take a look at open source project maintainers (what are they doing)?
- they are adding friction on the PR triaging and review
- no more breadcrumbs: always include a link to the conversation

## My completely unrequested piece of advice

- New tools require new manners: stop sloppypasta (https://stopsloppypasta.ai/en/)
- Reviews are the last gatekeeping tool to avoid the slop - not taking reviews seriously = doomed
- If you don't understand something, you should not use automatic programming to "solve" it
    - prediction: I believe in the following months/years there will be a bloom of indivisuals and organizations that will tackle engineering problems with no engineering background
- Use all the new tools, experiment and profit
- Your ability to read, understand, and produce code is still valuable (more that many might think) - excercise these skills

  - build pet projects and leverage coding agents for exploration
