The Hidden Cost of AI Coding: Technical Debt You Can’t See

July 10, 2026 14:20 – 14:50 · 30 min Stage 5

What this session covers

AI coding tools boost your productivity today, but at what price? This session uncovers the invisible technical debt accumulating in codebases built with AI assistants. Explore how generated code creates maintenance nightmares, why test coverage doesn’t tell the whole story, and what happens when your team can’t explain how their own code works. Learn to spot warning signs early, implement measures that preserve code quality, and build systems you can actually debug.
