At the AI Engineer conference in San Francisco, I heard Instagram co-founder Mike Krieger say developers no longer need to review every line of code by hand. The real job now is judging AI’s decisions and whether the product solves the right problem.

That mismatch is becoming the real cost of AI-assisted development: code ships faster, but the work of understanding it, checking it, and trusting it hasn’t sped up at all.

I went to Raise Summit in Paris to see whether Lovable is just another tool for non-technical founders - or something developers can actually use to build faster.

The promise of JPA is simple: define your entities, let the framework handle the rest. And it works until you look at what "the rest" means.

A new kind of builder is emerging inside organizations - one that works fast, ships often, and rarely follows the instincts of a software engineer. That raises a simple question: what happens to security?

Building software is full of ups and downs. Some days, you're working with the best team you can find, and others it's up to you to fix something with no idea how it works and no access to documentation.

We asked engineers how far AI can really go in software delivery, and their answer was simple: it can speed things up, but people still have to make the decisions.

Amir Sahefendic, CEO and founder of Doist, says success now depends on solving real problems and building products people actually want to keep using.

AI can write the code. The harder question is whether anyone still understands what it was supposed to do six months later.

At Devoxx UK in London, I caught up with Eoin Woods - co-author of three software architecture books and former CTO of Endava, to find out why beautifully designed systems still break in production.

At Infobip Shift, accomplished speaker and engineer Teresa Wu will talk about how AI is transforming software delivery, multi-platform development, and the future of engineering teams.
