02. Keynote | The Model Is Not the System | Dhaval Nagar | ACD'26

AI coding agents are changing how software gets built; but faster implementation doesn't mean engineers can give up architectural ownership. In this keynote, Dhaval Nagar explores how engineers can use AI to accelerate implementation while still understanding the systems they build. The session covers AWS architecture, permission boundaries, data flows, validation, observability, deployment safety, and the responsibility that comes with allowing intelligent agents to operate cloud environments. AI can help teams build faster. Engineers still need to design, verify, secure, and own the system. 🎤 Speaker: Dhaval Nagar, AppGambit 🌐 Website: https://acd26.awsugvad.in/ 👥 Join AWS User Group Vadodara: https://awsugvad.in/
