Constraining Agents for Software Development with Don Demcsak
Show notes
How can constraints make software development assistants more efficient? Carl and Richard talk to Don Demcsak about his work on getting LLMs to build higher-quality software with fewer resources. Don talks about how domain-driven language techniques help to define and constrain language around a given application problem space, but that largely hasn't been applied to coding agents so far. And as powerful as domain-driven is, it has challenges when it comes to building applications - and, more importantly, testing them. That's where behavior-driven approaches have advantages, which can also be applied to agents. Applying techniques of the past to tools of the future can accelerate development even further!
