## **Description**

As AI agents, LLMs, and autonomous orchestration engines start consuming APIs directly, traditional API design patterns simply aren’t enough.
Machines need *discoverability, consistency, context, and affordances* — not just endpoints.
This masterclass shows you the **five major shifts** required to evolve your APIs from human-friendly to **machine-ready**.
If you’re building APIs that will support automation, agents, or AI-driven workflows, this session is for you.

### **Mike Amundsen :**

Internationally recognized author, speaker, and consultant.
Expert in API ecosystems, network architecture, and the future of human–machine collaboration.
Author of **Design and Build Great APIs** and **RESTful Web API Patterns & Practices Cookbook**.

## **Who should attend**

Lead Developers
Solution Architects
CTOs
API Designers & Technical Leaders
Anyone responsible for **API strategy, design, or evolution** in the age of AI.

## **What you’ll learn**

### **Knowledge**

* The shift from human interfaces to **machine affordances**
