AI Content is changing dev work, should we be excited or nervous? But do we have a choice?

AI is everywhere these days, and software development teams are affected the most. There's a lot of FOMO-everyone wants to use AI, but do employers agree to it? What about proprietary code? GenAI is definitely writing code, fixing bugs, reviewing PRs, and there's news that AI will replace software engineers. Yes, so much distraction, a mix of excitement & anxiety. This session cuts through the hype, exploring the reality and how it is different. With 23 years of experience, I'll talk about how teams are using AI, teams solving business problems or over-relying on AI? Is there a paradigm shift? We'll discuss the risks, opportunities, and staying ahead. Whether you're excited, skeptical, or just curious this session offers realistic perspective on AI in software development.
