What we’re about
The Atlanta Java Users Group (AJUG) is organized by Java Developers for Java Developers in order to:
Provide a forum for exchanging information and for brainstorming with other developers on how to successfully implement new Java solutions.
Deliver monthly technical presentations on the latest Java/JVM technologies.
Support the needs of both newbies and experts through related Study Groups targeted at Java Certification and Java-OO architectural issues.
Promote the advantages of Java as a development and deployment environment to the business and educational communities.
While our focus is around Java and the JVM, we also cover a wide variety of other related topics such as Agile development methodologies, mobile and client-side software development frameworks and tools.

The Intersection of Architecture and AI
Is GenAI going to replace software architects? The short answer: no. The longer answer: it depends. This talk delves into the tricky intersection of architecture and AI, three concrete ways architects can use it effectively now, and when they should avoid it like the plague. I also show how advances like agentic AI supercharge automated governance via fitness functions, leading to fitness function-driven architectures.
