新聞要做一個軟體專案，通常會經過這樣的流程：產品經理（PM）先整理需求，與資深工程師來回討論，釐清功能背後真正要解決的問題，再由資深工程師設計架構、拆解工作，最後與資淺工程師分工實作。 這套流程之所以通用，是因為軟體開發的難題是「判斷這個功能該怎麼做」。同一個功能，可以有很多種寫法，但哪一種比較符合既有系統架構？哪一種未來比較好維護？哪一種不會讓技術債越滾越大？都需要經驗判斷。 也因此，業界長期仰…
新聞AI輔助開發（AI Coding）加速程式碼產出，但真正的挑戰才開始。 前聯發創新基地技術經理陳宜昌觀察，AI接手大量實作、測試和修正工作後，團隊更需要穩定的品質把關流程，也可以用AI協助檢查AI產出的結果。同時，工程師也不能停在「怎麼做」，而是要更早判斷「做什麼」、為什麼做，以及AI產出的成果是否真的可用。 AI Coding壓低開發成本，一人搭配AI Agent，也有機會快速開發產品原型；…
