The New Specification Reality
Lay the foundation: understand why specifications have become the bottleneck of AI-integrated product work — and experience firsthand how an AI coding agent interprets, and misinterprets, the way you specify today. You set up your AI workstation and choose your feature case for the whole program.
Learning outcomes: You will be able to
- explain why user stories and acceptance criteria are no longer sufficient when AI agents build the software
- identify the eight gap categories where specifications leave room for AI misinterpretation
- work hands-on with an AI coding agent on your own machine
- treat a spec as a contract — the artifact that stands in for you when you are not in the room
