Role of the Developer: From Coder to AI Development Orchestrator

About

Artificial intelligence is rapidly changing how software is built. Today, AI assistants augment developer productivity by generating code and automating routine tasks. But this is just the beginning. Over the next few years, the collaboration between humans and AI will deepen, fundamentally altering the developer's role. This webinar roundtable will delve into this evolution, examining the transition from primarily writing code to becoming an AI Development Orchestrator – someone who instructs, guides, makes design decisions, and orchestrates the work of AI agents in creating software.

Our panel of industry-leading experts will share their insights on how this shift is already reshaping development workflows, required skill sets, and the future of software development teams. They will discuss the practical implications of this change and provide actionable advice on how developers can prepare for this new era of collaborative coding.
