Coding with AI: What Works & What Doesn't

We all know AI dev tools are powerful, but they can also be incredibly frustrating if you use them wrong. In this session, I’ll share my personal “dos and don’ts” for navigating the current landscape of AI assistants. We’ll cover the right (and wrong) ways to use different tools, and how to avoid the common traps that actually slow you down. Finally, I’ll show you what happens when you build your own rules: a live demo of a self-learning agent I built with Claude Code and mcp.json that records sessions, writes its own memories, and gets smarter as I code.
