Ralph Loops: Build Dumb AI Loops That Ship — Chris Parsons, Cherrypick

May 4, 2026 · 1:48:26

Chris Parsons argues that dumb loops—simple while loops where an AI agent repeatedly executes the same task, evaluates its output, and iterates—outperform complex multi-agent orchestration and planning graphs. In this hands-on workshop, he builds a Pomodoro timer using Claude Code, implementing tickets one by one in a loop that self-corrects with each pass. He demonstrates the 'loop' command in Claude Code for scheduled, continuous execution and shows how to use sub-agents for adversarial validation to avoid self-confirmation bias. The talk covers real-world applications such as a worker loop that processes project steps overnight and a morning loop that generates daily briefings, all designed to offload routine work while keeping human oversight for irreversible decisions. Parsons emphasizes that the bottleneck in AI-augmented teams is often the review process, not coding speed, urging teams to identify and fix their biggest constraint first.

Welcome to AIE CODE - Jed Borovik, Google DeepMind

Jed Borovik, Google DeepMind's Gemini assistant and lead of the Jewels coding agent product engineering team, opens the 2025 AI Engineering Code Summit in New York by declaring that the most important problem in applied AI is code. He frames the event as a single-track summit designed to push the entire AI coding industry forward, not any single company. Borovik highlights the previous leadership track, which covered how AI transforms software organizations, and sets the day's focus on patterns, systems, and products enabling that transformation. He thanks DeepMind as presenting sponsor, noting the timely release of Gemini 3 and Nano Banana Pro, along with Anthropic as platinum sponsor and other gold and silver sponsors. Borovik encourages attendees to visit sponsor booths in the expo area and expresses excitement for the keynotes to come.

Building in the Gemini Era – Kat Kampf & Ammaar Reshi, Google DeepMind

Kat Kampf and Ammaar Reshi from Google DeepMind present Gemini 3 and Nano Banana Pro, arguing that these models enable anyone to build complex, aesthetic applications through natural language alone. Gemini 3 achieves state-of-the-art results in one-shot UI design and agentic tool calling, with SweBench outperformance. Nano Banana Pro integrates Google Search for world knowledge and renders text accurately, handling up to 14 consistent people per image. They demonstrate vibe coding in AI Studio, building a personalized comic book with precise text, laptop stickers grounded in search, and a 3D racing game that scaled to 23 players live. Upcoming full-stack runtime adds backend support and automatic database integration, further democratizing software creation.
