Most engineering leaders got here by being the smartest person in the room. We built our careers, and a good part of who we are, on how well we think. So when a machine starts doing that too, the unease many of us feel isn't really about headcount or roadmaps. It's more personal than that.
In this session, Jonathan Raymond, who is not an engineer and will ask your permission before pretending to be one, takes you on a funny and unexpectedly personal journey. It starts in the crib and ends somewhere you probably won't see coming. Come ready to laugh, to think, and to try one small thing on yourself.
What attendees will take away
- A different explanation for why AI feels so existential right now
- One simple exercise to try on yourself, in the room
- A clearer sense of what matters more, not less, now that the machine does the rest
