Mihail Eric

Created Stanford's first AI coding class. Former YC founder and Amazon AI lead. 

Cohort 1

Today many developers use AI, but few are truly productive with it. I created Stanford's first AI software development class, and after building a YC-backed coding company and leading AI at Amazon, I've seen how top engineers integrate AI into production workflows. My techniques have been used to train 200+ Stanford engineers and industry professionals.My goal is simple: make you dramatically more productive writing software with AI than without it.In this course, you'll learn practical, end-to-end workflows for using AI in real-world development, not toy examples. We'll cover:<ul><li>Building production features with AI agents using the research → plan → implement → test workflow</li><li>Configuring an AI native dev environment for your specific tech stack (IDE, code review, tool integrations, and beyond)</li><li>Setting up review and CI processes that catch AI errors, hallucinations, and slop before production</li><li>Enabling multiple agents to work together on the same codebase without conflict, accelerating software delivery and throughput</li></ul>If you're ready to write better code, ship faster, and stay in control of your stack, let's get started.
