Synopsis

As the rise of ChatGPT captures the imagination of everyone from misguided lawyers to crypto-youtube-self-help-become-a-millionaire scammers, it begs the question how generative AI will impact software development.

Is this just another smart auto-complete, kind of like getter/setter template generator on steroids, or is it a fundamental shift that will make developers obsolete?

Join us for an engaging exploration into the rapid advancements in the world of AI chatbots, their potential capabilities, and the implications for the future of development. Gojko will first present some of the crazy stuff that is happening in the field, then invite the audience to try to figure out what will or won't be replaced by AI chatbots in the next few years. Bring your laptop and a healthy dose of skepticism.
