World Congress 2026 North America

There’s No Such Thing as Vibe Strategy, Vibe Security, or Vibe Scale

September 24, 2026 12:15 – 12:45 · 30 min Tech Leaders Stage

What this session covers

Across enterprises, a similar experiment seems to be playing out: developers are shipping at accelerating speed with AI-assisted tools, and that speed is real and worth preserving. But “vibing” something — coding, security, strategy, tax prep, take your pick — only holds up because someone isn’t deep enough in it to know what they may be missing, and that can work well for a proof point, but may not translate to what runs the business. This session is about the line leadership teams have to hold: how you let builders iterate and prove ideas fast without letting ungoverned experiments quietly become production systems. PwC’s technology specialists will share how they’ve built the controls, telemetry, and enterprise-grade guardrails — going beyond what frontier AI companies can provide — to turn fast iteration into durable, scaled engineering output.​
