How AI is changing the way software gets built in 2026 — told firsthand by the practitioners living it.
Software engineering has been transformed this year. Not gradually, suddenly. Claude Code, Cursor, and agentic workflows no longer just autocomplete lines; they write entire features, debug across codebases, and ship pull requests. Junior engineers produce at senior-level velocity, senior engineers operate at staff-level scope, and small teams now ship what once took thirty people.
This is not a future trend. It has already happened. Each week this summer, one practitioner who is living that change joins us to share how their day-to-day engineering work has shifted, because the field our students are entering has already changed.
Eight sessions on Thursdays between May 28 and July 23. Each session is a 30-minute talk followed by 15 minutes of Q&A.
