Are you still writing your software architecture line by line, or are you letting autonomous agents do the heavy lifting?
In this episode of The Agent Factory, we explore the radical shift toward intent-driven development, where your job is to tell the AI what to build rather than how to build it.
Host Smitha Kolan sits down with Lydia Hallie from Anthropic and YK Sugi, the creator of CS Dojo and author of the viral Claude Code Tips repository. Together, they showcase two groundbreaking live demos. First, you'll see how to spin up Claude Code on Google Cloud access massive enterprise scale via the Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform. Then, YK demonstrates building a complete 3D physics slingshot game. Lydia pushes the envelope even further by using Claude Design and the brand-new Dynamic Workflows feature powered by the Fable 5 model to spawn parallel engineering subagents that generate modular UI, audio components, and haptics in real time.
