How this was checked
Not yet checked by an independent second reader. The wording, speaker and date come from the source linked above; treat it as a lead until it is confirmed.
First reader (2026-10-31): wording matched against the talk transcript the AI Engineer page loads (https://ai.engineer/api/data/transcript?slug=agentic-sdlc-at-uber-building-blocks-for-uber-s-software-factory&format=json). An earlier blind read on 2026-10-31 compared it with that page's article text, a third-person write-up, and could not find it; the citation now points at the talk recording, so the next blind read checks the spoken words. Not yet checked by a blind second reader. Second reader (2026-11-01): dispute. Reviewer saw: The word 'cumulatively' is not confirmed. Whisper has 'We handled more than 250 automated migrations, militably nine million lines of code automatically for our engineers.' Captions (1:04-1:10) have 'handled more than 250 automated migrations 9 million lines of code automatically for our engineers', with no 'cumulatively'. 'militably' sounds like 'cumulatively' but is not an exact match, and the captions lack the word. Numerals are spoken as '250' and '9 million'; I treated spelled-out numbers as a spoken rendering. The 'cumulatively' problem alone makes this a dispute.
