Speakers Origin Digital: Jake Gavin [and co-presenter] Databricks: T.BD Location 20 N. Wacker Dr. Chicago, Floor 12 (TechNexus, Civic Opera Building) Hosts Origin Digital Agenda: Agenda: 5:00–5:30 p.m. Happy Hour 5:30 (45–60 min): Beyond Vibe Coding: Enterprise Grade Agentic AI Development on Databricks * Vibe coding vs. lasting software: AI tools write code fast, but without the right process, maintenance remains a bottleneck. Good software is software that's easy to evolve no matter who or what writes it. * Humans stay where judgement matters: Agents built with Superpowers and Databricks Agent Skills write the spec first and test before coding. A person approves each step, and a change gets from spec to production in about an hour. * The Databricks setup: Asset Bundles, data contracts in Unity Catalog, DQX quality checks, Lakebase branching and other tools that accelerate time-to-value and promote scale, maintainability. * See it live: Watch the full loop run and leave with a pattern your team can use. 6:30 (~60 min): From prompt to app with Genie App Builder (Beta) and the new Genie Code CLI * What it is: Genie App Builder builds a Databricks App from a plain-English description. It generates the app with Databricks AppKit, gives you a working preview to refine with follow-up prompts, then deploys it. * Pair it with Genie Code CLI: a coding agent that runs in your terminal and is tuned for Databricks.
