7 Ways You Can Build an Amazing Dev Career in the AI Era

We have a JetBrains single product license that we will be raffling off after the presentation! To win, you must be present during the drawing at the end of the meetup.

New: We are meeting in the usual place, but in a new presentation room on the 3rd floor that should be much better than the old space on the 2nd floor!

Abstract
Are you also wondering where you fit in all of this?

Every day, you are bombarded with claims that AI will transform software development. Is this an unprecedented opportunity or an existential threat?

After more than 30 years in the software industry, I've seen technologies create opportunities, destroy opportunities, and completely reshape careers.

Yet... there are always professionals who seem to thrive regardless of the changes happening around them.
Why do some become more valuable... while others struggle?

This presentation will face the myths around AI head-on and explore how you can create opportunities in the age of AI... instead of being afraid and scrambling to keep up.

Because the future may belong to those who understand something deeper than technology itself...
