At QCon London, Duolingo engineer Sarah Deitke described how the company's DevEx AI team combines internal lab-style AI literacy workshops and AI observability dashboards with guardrails to enable an automated PR risk‑assessment bot that redesigns code review; the approach reportedly speeds delivery without increasing defect rates. The talk emphasized pairing targeted developer education with monitoring and safety measures to build trust and accountability for autonomous tooling.
