Most engineers still use AI tools ad hoc, individually, without shared standards. The result is inconsistent output, quality gaps in production, and a growing sense that the role itself is shifting faster than the profession has answers for. If you're ready to move beyond just using AI to write code, this book provides the framework to work with AI systematically, across a full development lifecycle and a whole team.
