Elevator Pitch
Software development is about efficiency and creativity. In Code smarter, not harder: How AI Coding Tools Boost Your Productivity, I explore how tools like GitHub Copilot and Cursor transform workflows, automate tasks, and let you focus on delivering smarter solutions and exceptional code.
Description
Software development is no longer just about writing code – it’s about efficiency, smart solutions, and focusing on what truly matters. AI-powered coding tools like GitHub Copilot, Cursor, bolt.new, and v0 are transforming the way we build software. This talk provides a comprehensive overview of the tools currently available, their use cases, and their limitations. It explores how these tools automate repetitive tasks, accelerate development processes, and create space for more creative and strategic work. Challenges and limitations are also addressed to provide a realistic perspective on their potential. The goal of this talk is to demonstrate how AI coding tools can optimize workflows and make day-to-day work more productive – without compromising on quality.
Notes
This session is designed for software developers and architects looking to enhance their workflow using AI tools. No specific technical prerequisites are required, but basic knowledge of modern development processes is helpful. The first public delivery of this talk will be at the BASTA Spring 2025. The preferred session duration is 45 minutes. The goal is to appeal to a broad audience, from beginners to experienced developers.
