Artificial Intelligence (AI) has become integral to software development, automating complex tasks and shaping this field's future. However, it also comes with challenges. In this talk, we explore how AI impacts current software development and possibilities for the future. We'll delve into AI language models in programming, discussing pros, cons and challenges. This talk, tailored to both supporters and skeptics of AI in software development, doesn't shy away from discussing the ethical obligations tied to this technology.

Target Audience: Software Engineers, Architects and Project Leaders in an enterprise environment
Prerequisites: Basic Understanding of Software Development
Level: Advanced

Extended Abstract:
The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI), especially AI language models, is fundamentally reshaping the landscape of software development. This transformative technology offers exciting possibilities, from enhancing developer productivity to simplifying complex tasks. However, it is crucial to acknowledge and address the inherent challenges that accompany these advancements.
In this session, we delve into AI's role in software development, emphasizing both the potential benefits and potential drawbacks of AI. We will also examine the ethical implications of this technology.
By the end of the session, attendees will have a comprehensive understanding of AI's role in software development, reinforced by practical demonstrations. Participants will gain insight and skills for their daily roles as well as strategies for adopting and applying AI within their software development context.
As AI continues to permeate software development, understanding its potential and preparing for its challenges has become vital. My session, directly tied to the conference theme of "Expanding Horizons", provides unique, practical insights to help attendees navigate an AI-integrated future. Join me in encouraging the responsible and effective use of this transformative technology.
