It started innocently enough, letting AI finish a line of code here, a class there, but soon I found myself delegating entire features and experimenting with technologies I had never touched before. What began as small productivity boosts quickly became a full experiment in how far AI could be pushed, from generating scaffolding and tests to building a production‑ready app from scratch.

This session is a personal exploration of how my role as a software creator has evolved alongside AI. Using real examples from my own projects, I will share how experience, discernment, and strong fundamentals remain essential even as AI takes on more responsibility. Attendees will gain insight into how AI can reshape workflows, accelerate learning, and expand the scope of what a developer can accomplish while retaining control and ownership of the software they create.
