Breakfast Keynote - "Don't Panic, it's just AI: A Developers Handbook"
Thursday October 10, 2024 8:30am - 9:30am EDT
In a galaxy not so far away, where AI has become as ubiquitous as towels are to interstellar hitchhikers, one developer stands ready to guide you through the vast expanse of possibilities and pitfalls. Enter Christopher Moravec, your very own Ford Prefect, armed with a developer's handbook that's more essential than a Babel fish in your ear. 
"Don't Panic, It's Just AI: A Developer's Handbook" is your ticket to navigating the often-bewildering landscape of artificial intelligence. Through real-world examples and live demonstrations, Christopher will show you how to wield AI as a tool for empowerment even as it threatens to make you as obsolete as a buggy whip salesperson at a spaceship convention. Just like with the answer to life, the universe, and everything (42), the key to success with AI lies in finding the right questions. Together, we will discover how to use chatbots to write code (because even the Geospatial Insanity Systems Corporation needs a little help sometimes), generate names for your map layers (goodbye, "Layer1_copy_final_final2"), and even create presentations on the fly (like this one!), as well as when to leave AI out of your toolkit. 
So, whether you are a seasoned developer or just starting your journey, join Christopher for a wild ride through the galaxy of AI possibilities. It is time to stop panicking and start problem-solving!
