Amp ships to production around 50 times a day with AI agents, but the change that makes their team ship faster isn't AI at all. Dario Hamidi, AI engineer at Amp, makes the case that pull requests are holding your team back, and explains what replaces them.
In this video, we cover:
Why Amp works without pull requests or feature branches, and how to try it with your own team
Agent permissions, approval fatigue, and building environments where you can trust agents
Orbs: remote agent execution, parallelism, and multiplayer sessions
Short-lived credentials and workload identity federation for cloud agents
Triaging 60+ bug reports a day with agents without frying your brain
For engineers and engineering leads who want to ship faster with AI agents and are ready to question the workflows they've always used.
