Navigating AI Native Development with Simon Maple – YouTube
June 23, 2025

AI is reshaping the way we build software, shifting from code-centric to spec-centric development, where developers define what they want, and AI determines how to achieve it. But how do we get there? In this session, we’ll explore what AI Native Development means, why it’s worth pursuing, and how we can apply lessons from cloud-native and DevOps transformations to make it a reality.We’ll also look at the practical side understanding how the craft of prompt engineering can help us refine structured specifications to improve results. By experimenting with different prompting techniques and validation methods, you’ll gain actionable strategies for guiding AI tools more effectively.
An exploration of ‘AI Native Development’ and how LLMs are impacting the prate of Software Engineering. Around an hour, but an excellent overview.
