Yesterday marked the annual Jatim Developer Day event, a gathering of tech enthusiasts and professionals. Attendees gathered to learn from three distinguished keynote speakers who shared their insights on the impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on the development world. Among the speakers, Eko Kurniawan's talk "AI Can Write Code. Can You Design the System?" stood out, sparking a discussion on the role of AI in programming and system design.
Eko Kurniawan's presentation highlighted three key points regarding AI's influence on the development process. First, mastering AI tools is crucial for developers, as they should not merely rely on AI-generated solutions without understanding their underlying concepts. Second, developers should take control of their AI usage, carefully considering their goals and evaluating the results to ensure the solutions they receive genuinely meet their needs.
Lastly, Eko Kurniawan emphasized that developers cannot afford to reject AI entirely; instead, they must adapt to its growing presence in the industry, incorporating it into their workflows and continuously learning to stay relevant.
