AI is giving developers unprecedented autonomy. Every engineer can now create their own workflow, combining coding agents, prompts, knowledge bases, and tools in different ways. While this can dramatically increase individual productivity, it introduces a new challenge for engineering leaders: maintaining consistency across teams.
In this talk, we'll explore how AI is creating new forms of organizational drift, why team alignment matters more than ever, and practical approaches for building shared AI practices without limiting innovation.
