Talk 1 AI-Enabled SDLC: From Startup to Global Enterprise by Stephen
One human, one AI agent, nearly 500 production pull requests, and a global enterprise rollout: what really breaks when you give AI autonomy in the SDLC, and which guardrails transfer.

Build & Sip: Vibe Coding, Women, + Non-Binary Edition

Stone & Chalk Tech Central Sydney, Haymarket, Australia
In person

AKA Wine & Vibe Coding Build & Sip: Vibe Coding for Women + Non-Binary Builders Thursday 29 October | Stone & Chalk Sydney Every attendee gets a full month of Claude Max, Anthropic’s top tier plan, free for the day. It’s what you’ll build with for the three hours, and it’s yours to keep using once the event wraps. Three hours, real builders in the room, your rough idea turned into something that actually works by the end of it. This one’s for women and non-binary folks who’ve been meaning to get hands-on with AI but haven’t had the entry point, the time, or frankly, the wine. No tech background needed. Bring a laptop, an idea (rough is fine), and a willingness to build before you feel ready. Here’s how the three hours work. You’ll build with Claude Code, which is where the thinking happens: shaping the rough idea into something real, writing the copy, generating the thing itself. Then you’ll use OhhWells to get it live and looking like yours rather than like every other AI build. Most people can get a site up now. Getting one that doesn’t look generic is the part nobody teaches you. Your build could be a landing page. A waitlist page. A simple internal tool. A booking form. A quiz that routes people to the right offer. An MVP for the app idea you’ve been sitting on. The site for the thing you’ve been explaining to people verbally for six months. Something the dev team would put in a backlog until 2029. What you’ll need A laptop An idea, rough is fine You’ll walk out with A working prototype, built by you Prompts and vibe-coding resources you can use again tomorrow A free month of Claude Max to keep building after the event Free OhhWells credits and their prompt playbook to keep building afterwards Help planning, prompting, testing, and refining A chance to demo what you built Wine, because courage What you’ll need A laptop An idea, rough is fine Come with an idea.
