The episode discusses the challenges and misconceptions surrounding spec-driven development and the role of AI in software engineering.
In this episode, we take on spec-driven development, the resurgent idea that writing a detailed spec and letting AI implement it will finally give us the precision engineering promised us since the 1950s. We push back on the notion that this fixes what actually sank spec-driven approaches decades ago: specs were never the problem; following them was. Along the way, we debate whether AI-generated code is any more correct than what a room of human developers would produce, dig into the "Phoenix...
