The AI Native Dev - from Copilot today to AI Native Software Development tomorrow

Is Your Team Ready for AI-Driven Modernization? | Birgitta Böckeler

What does it mean to be a developer when AI writes most of the code?On this episode of AI Native Dev, Birgitta Böckeler, Distinguished Engineer at ThoughtWorks, joins Simon Maple to unpack how AI is changing legacy migrations, and why the real value comes from pairing LLMs with proven software engineering practices.They also get into:• why “AI alone” won’t solve legacy modernization• how codemods and deterministic tools amplify AI creativity• the reflex to rewrite vs. the discipline to refactor• why developers need to evolve into managers of AI-driven workflowsAI Native Dev, powered by Tessl and our global dev community, is your go-to podcast for solutions in software development in the age of AI.

Can AI Really Build Enterprise-Grade Software? | Maor Shlomo & Base44

AI coding is great for demos, but can it handle production apps?On this episode of AI Native Dev, Maor Shlomo, founder of Base44, joins Guy Podjarny to share how he built one of the first “batteries-included” AI app builders and what it reveals about building real software in the age of LLMs.They dive into:• why less complexity helps LLMs perform• how Base44 ships apps with databases and integrations built in• what smaller, high-context teams can do that big ones can’t• the path from vibe coding to agentic applicationsAI Native Dev, powered by Tessl and our global dev community, is your go-to podcast for solutions in software development in the age of AI.

Transforming Dev Practices with Kiro’s Spec-Driven Tools | Nikhil and Richard

Rapid prototyping is fun, but maintaining it? Not so much. In this episode, Simon Maple is joined by Nikhil Swaminathan, Head of Product and Richard Threlkeld, Principal Engineer at Kiro IDE (AWS), to discuss how spec-driven development moves the focus from writing code to understanding and communicating system behavior, building software that is easy to understand so that developers can maintain code without losing clarity.They also explore:• Kiro’s philosophy on spec-driven development• why specs must be composable documents• how specs enable better review and reasoning around refactorsAI Native Dev, powered by Tessl and our global dev community, is your go-to podcast for solutions in software development in the age of AI.
