Vue.js Talks #21 — Speaking Business + Cognitive Bias in the Age of AI

Welcome to Vue.js Talks #21 👋 This episode steps beyond frameworks and syntax to explore two skills that affect almost every technical decision: clear communication and critical thinking. 🎤 Talks in this episode - Yauheni Prakopchyk 1. Speaking Business: A Developer’s Guide to Talking with Non-Technical Teams Developers are usually comfortable with estimates, risks, and technical trade-offs. The challenge begins when that information needs to reach clients, product managers, or other people who have never opened a terminal. This talk explores two common communication failures: turning a technical estimate into information a client can actually use to make a decision; reducing technical complexity to the specific part the decision depends on. Learn how to explain engineering choices clearly without overwhelming people with implementation details—or delivering a twenty-minute monologue about the build pipeline. 2. Reach for the Strip: Cognitive Bias in the Age of AI - Andrii Bohdanov Your brain is confidently wrong more often than you think—and so is your AI. This talk takes a fresh look at cognitive bias, how our minds interpret information, and why something can feel obviously correct even when it is not. Expect a live optical illusion, practical insights, and a slightly uncomfortable examination of how both humans and AI reach conclusions.
