slides:none on file

Predicts 90% of code will be written by agents, shows Copilot assigning itself an issue, spinning up a VM, cloning a repo and migrating unit tests to pytest, creating a branch and a draft pull request, running PyTest, detecting one failure, fixing code and rerunning until tests pass. Demo also has an agent add a Snake game to an existing arcade, register it in the main menu, run tests and iterate with terminal commands. Describes synchronous IDE agents and asynchronous background agents and stresses human review remains required.
