it’s a wrap!
this 2nd edition consolidated @arcofai as a must-attend conference on the circuit.
grateful to have presented at both editions, and already looking forward to coming back next year with more to share on AI.
#ArcOfAI 2026 was one for the books! 🤖
An amazing week packed with learning, big ideas, and an incredible community. From deep-dive sessions to hallway moments—so much to take away.
Huge thanks to our speakers, attendees, & everyone behind the scenes.
🚀 See you next year!
Great catching up with @venkat_s at @arcofai ! 🤝 Incredible event packed with amazing insights on the future of AI. If you aren't paying attention to what they are doing over at https://t.co/HegE4wPArL, you are missing out. Huge boost to Venkat and the team! ⚡️🔥

Sitting in the panel session at @arcofai and the question was just asked, what can't ai do?
Great, insightful article this morning in the @nytimes literally on that question.

It’s the final day of #ArcOfAI 🤖
An incredible few days of learning, energy, & big ideas—and we’re not done yet. There are still sessions to catch and insights to take away that you won’t get anywhere else!
Let’s finish strong 🚀

Yesterday I had the privilege to present at @arcofai about bringing agents into mission-critical systems in a governed way.
Demo video coming this week.

Thank you so much to @Azul_Systems for hosting Monday night’s social hour at #ArcOfAI! 🌟
It was the perfect chance to connect, unwind, and bring the community together after a full day of learning.
We couldn’t have asked for a better evening 🥂✨
#Azul#AI#Austin#TechEvents
Just wrapped my talk at @arcofai in Austin yesterday.
75 minutes on AI coding agents for full-stack Java dev in @jetbrains@intellijidea.
Here's what we covered...
AI coding agents aren't autocomplete anymore. They write entire features, generate tests, and produce docs. The shift is real and it's fast.
We did a live head-to-head: @GitHubCopilot vs @jetbrains Junie, running Claude, GPT, Gemini, and Grok side-by-side inside IntelliJ IDEA 2026.1. And then topped it off with an @opencode demo.
The stack I used: @springboot + @grailsframework. Why Grails? Groovy gives you ~30-40% better token efficiency vs pure Java. That matters a lot when you're hitting context limits.
We also got real about the pitfalls:
↳ Hallucinations inventing fake methods and plugins
↳ Context loss mid-session on large codebases
↳ Security risks from unreviewed AI commits
↳ Over-reliance leading to hidden tech debt
And I showed my GitHub contribution graph: 7,744 contributions in the last year. Agentic engineering acceleration is not theoretical.
The audience brought great energy and sharp questions. Austin did not disappoint. 🚀

A standout keynote yesterday evening to a full room at #ArcOfAI 🚀
@sjmaple & @jbaruch from @tessl_io explored what it means to be an AI-native developer—working with AI agents as teammates, not just tools.
A new way of thinking about development and collaboration 🤖

A packed room yesterday evening for the #ArcOfAI conference kickoff with @venkat_s 🚀
Huge energy in the room and an exciting start to the event.
Nothing beats being there in person! And so much more to come... 👀

on my way to @arcofai
really excited to talk about AI in the enterprise for mission critical systems, where determinism, explainability, and guardrails matter
