Feature Flags: A Safety Net in the AI Era

AI's promise—speed and efficiency—is only half true. It's fast, but it's not efficient. Teams still need to comb through, test, and fix AI-assisted code in order to minimise risk. Without feature flags, the bottleneck simply moves. Learn how developers can implement release strategies that remove that bottleneck.

Agenda

Challenges
• Common challenges developers face when deploying AI-assisted features

Why Safety Nets Matter
• What feature flags are and their role in software delivery
• How flags help decouple deployment from release
• Reducing risk when introducing AI-assisted code

Using Feature Flags to Manage AI Risk
• Progressive rollout strategies
• Turning off problematic features quickly
• Testing AI features safely in production
