Software Center keynote (my own views)

Pekka Abrahamsson — Tampere University Research Portal (tuni.fi)

Using generative AI in software engineering is moving from a simple playground to fully fledged assistants. Jensen Huang said last year that “AI will not take your job, someone with AI will”. This could not be more true. AI is not ready to take over everything, but it is able to provide great assistance.

We’ve done this a few times in software center and we will do it a few times again. Creating software and artefacts around software is even easier today. A cool example of a demo that the speaker showed is the ability to take a picture from a research presentation and ask ChatGPT to explain it, generate data and show how to use it in practice. Really cool!
