Laurie Voss

VP Developer Relations

AI and the future of software development

16:00 - 16:45
AI represents a massive change in the way software works, a leap forward. It also presents an opportunity for a massive change in the way software is written. AI-assisted coding may be an entirely new level of abstraction that sits on top of traditional programming languages and unlocks a huge new generation of software developers. In this talk, we'll explore what this change looks like, how it came to be, and why it's nothing to be scared of. And remember: there's no such thing as "the fundamentals".

Hannah Foxwell

Independent Advisor, Consultant, Writer and Creator
16:45 - 17:30

Panel discussion: Developing in an AI world - are we all demoted to reviewers?

As developers, the new AI world seems great, but also strange. Originally we saw ourselves as creators, writers of code and owners of the functionality. In a world where more and more code is generated and users build throwaway applications it can feel like we're losing control. In this panel we will discuss what that means in terms of ownership, security, quality and maybe find that not all is eaten as hot as it is cooked.

Thomas Steiner

Developer Relations Engineer
18:15 - 19:00

AI right in the browser with Chrome's built-in AI APIs

In this talk, Thomas Steiner from Google Chrome's AI team dives into the various built-in AI APIs that the team is currently exploring. First, there's the exploratory Prompt API that allows for free-form interactions with the Gemini Nano model. Second, there are the different task APIs that are fine-tuned to work well for a particular task like translations, language detection, summarization, and writing or rewriting. After introducing the APIs, the final part of the talk focuses on demos, applications, and use cases unlocked through these APIs.

Chief Technology Officer

Fireside Chat:
What’s the future of developer tools in an AI world?

When it comes to developer efficiency, tooling has always been the biggest boost. Hackable editors, developer tools in the browser, full end-to-end debugging, remote control of browsers and headless browsers. Everything you need to hit the ground running and debug without any confusion or “black magic”. Our only worry was that people didn’t use these tools correctly. Forward to now: are developer tools even necessary any more in an AI age? How good are prompt generated apps? Did ChatGPT make apps a disposable product that doesn’t even need expert creators any longer?

Fireside Chat:
Collaborative generation of applications - are humans and AI in harmony?

Over the last few years a new way of working has become the norm: collaboratively building apps and solutions in browser based, real time environments. Figma and code generators that turn designs into components are pretty common tools and broke down the barriers between designer and developer. The question now is how this can improve even more. How will we work with others and with AI agents in the nearer future? How does user experience, developer experience and AI Agent experience work hand in hand or is Ai making some roles obsolete?
