Eighty percent of new developers on GitHub start using Copilot within their first week. How many really know what it's pulling in?

Code generation gets all the attention, but one of AI's biggest strengths might be helping non-engineers prototype ideas, explore solutions, and get work done that otherwise never would have happened.

"We'll spend weeks shaving 10 minutes off CI, then let code sit waiting 18 hours for review." Luca and Rob discuss why AI isn't just changing how we write code, it’s forcing teams to rethink the entire software delivery process.

The secure path and the easy path should be the same path. Ralph McTeggart (Principal Engineer), Alex Franzmann (Customer Onboarding Team Lead), and Claire McDyre (Product Manager) at Cloudsmith lay out how platform teams can deliver supply chain security as a capability rather than a checklist. The argument runs from first principles: make a private registry the default, automate policy enforcement at the global level, and extend that same logic to compliance – so SBOM generation happens in the pipeline, not as a developer's manual task.

Stop context-switching between your IDE and CI dashboard. This video shows you how to connect Cursor to CircleCI using the CircleCI MCP server so your AI agent can read pipeline failures, validate configs, and trigger builds without leaving your editor. In this demo, we introduce a bug, let CI catch it, and watch the agent diagnose and fix it autonomously through a full green pipeline. No manual log hunting required.

The first two to three hours after a supply chain compromise aren't about remediation – they're about figuring out whether you're affected at all. That requires two things: a feed of compromised packages you can cross-reference against what you're using, and an audit trail showing which developers pulled which packages and when. Teams that can answer "are we affected?" in 30 minutes have that data pre-built into their platform. Teams that don't are still piecing it together at hour three.
