DESCRIPTION:Goodbye slop\; welcome determinism | David Khourshid (Founder\,
  Stately.ai)\nAuditorium\n\n**Talk description**: Vibe coding feels produc

 ondeterministic behavior\, and compounding errors hiding in plain sight. T
 his talk pushes back on the status quo: elaborate agent architectures\, "p

 indows and credit cards. Come for the critique\, leave with a framework fo
 r using AI to build software you actually understand.\n\n**Speaker bio**: 
 David is the founder of Stately.ai and creator of XState\, the most popula
