AI is changing more than how we write code. It’s changing how we build software. As GitHub Copilot evolves beyond code completion into an intelligent collaborator, developers and organizations have an opportunity to rethink how they work.
In this session, we’ll explore how AI can support the software development lifecycle, from planning and implementation to testing, documentation, and code reviews. We’ll discuss context engineering, intentional AI adoption, and how teams can create effective collaboration between developers and AI while maintaining the right balance of automation and human judgment.
