Our 2025 Events
Here's what we're bringing you in person (and streaming) in 2025. With more online at Conffab.
the evolution of software engineering
Large Language Models are transforming the tools, processes, and very nature of software engineering. From AI-assisted coding to autonomous agents and model-driven development, what it means to build software—and to be a software engineer—is being reimagined in real time.
At Engineering AI, we’ll explore this rapidly shifting landscape. What practices still hold? What assumptions no longer serve us? What new skills are becoming essential? And what are the emerging roles, responsibilities, and risks in an AI-shaped engineering discipline?
Join us as we examine how LLMs are reshaping not just the products we build, but software engineering itself.
