KEYNOTE (AI DevWorld): Stack Overflow -- Why Building Trust in AI Is Key to Healthy Knowledge Ecosystem

Wednesday February 12, 2025 9:30am - 9:55am PST

Prashanth Chandrasekar, Stack Overflow, CEO

The internet and its business models are changing. For the last 16 years, Stack Overflow has been at the forefront, helping to shape the future of the web. In this time of disruption comes a necessary time to reflect, change, and break the norms of ‘this is how it's always been done.’ With the expansion of generative AI, many LLM providers are not allowing the world to operate as it has previously. Instead, a new paradigm has emerged: content created by thousands of creators across the Open Web is now being used to train models without respect or attribution for the original creator.

Consequently, in the current transformation, human-centered sources of knowledge are obscured. We face a world in which the old paradigms are no longer paramount, and their places in the world are redefined. Companies and organizations lucky enough to host these engines of knowledge production are at a decision point; how do they continue to monetize when the technological landscapes have changed? A change in strategy will allow these companies, AI tools, and the communities and data sets that power them to thrive.

CEO Prashanth Chandrasekar shares why in the GenAI era, trust in data is key to driving innovation, improving the developer experience, and building thriving knowledge communities.

Nabil Bukhari, Extreme Networks, Chief Product & Technology Officer, EVP, GM Subscription Business

In the race to adopt AI, even experienced business leaders can find themselves focusing too much on the technology itself, leading to less-than-optimal results. AI isn’t just about algorithms, machine learning, and large language models - it’s about the meaningful impact it can deliver when applied strategically. Nabil Bukhari, CTO and GM of subscriptions at Extreme Networks, the world’s fastest growing cloud networking company, offers a fresh perspective on AI strategy—one that prioritizes real outcomes over flashy applications.

In this session, Nabil will present the ARC Framework, a proven approach that guides organizations (A)ccelerating existing processes, (R)eplacing outdated systems, and (C)reating valuable new experiences, all to ensure AI investments drive measurable business impact.

This framework took shape during the development of Extreme Platform One, one of Extreme’s most ambitious projects to date. In a world where 80% of AI projects fail, Extreme Platform One stands out for simplifying complex network management and delivering tangible value to organizations of all sizes. The ARC Framework highlights that AI itself is not the innovation - it’s how we apply it strategically to create meaningful outcomes. Learn actionable strategies to avoid common pitfalls, like chasing hype or low-impact use cases, and harness AI’s true potential to drive transformation in your business.

This is a must-attend for anyone looking to integrate AI in a way that optimizes AI investments, complements their organization’s culture, solves actual business challenges, and positions them for lasting impact. Join us to explore how you can lead AI-driven change with purpose and impact.

PRO Session: Building an Advanced Software Engineering Agent

Wednesday February 12, 2025 1:00pm - 1:25pm PST

AI DevWorld Main Stage

YK Sugi, Sourcegraph, Senior AI Developer Advocate

This presentation details the development of an experimental software engineering agent designed to answer complex questions about codebases. The core innovation lies in a graph-based approach where the agent iteratively gathers contextual information, using self-reflection to assess its confidence in answering the query. By treating accumulated context as a set and employing a greedy best-first search guided by confidence scores, the system aims to efficiently navigate the codebase and provide accurate answers. Initial findings are promising, with future benchmarks on real-world software engineering challenges planned to further validate its capabilities.

KEYNOTE (AI DevWorld): The Agentic Workforce Revolution: How to Futureproof Your Governance Framework

Wednesday February 12, 2025 2:00pm - 2:25pm PST

AI DevWorld Main Stage

Manish Rai, Snaplogic, VP of Product Marketing

The rise of AI agents shows no sign of slowing down, with the market projected* to grow tenfold from $5 billion in 2024 to nearly $50 billion by 2030. By this time, generative AI will be table stakes, and business and IT leaders will instead be grappling with how to manage an entire workforce of AI agents carrying out a range of automated tasks.

In an AI-powered future, enterprises are like gardens with AI agents as gardeners, helping the landscapers maintain the estate. These agents are smart, self sufficient tools, and excel at specific tasks, but if the tool shed is disorganized they will be slowed down — or worse, use the wrong soil or seeds and cause irreparable damage, preventing the garden from blooming to its full potential. To avoid this, organizations must keep their tools in order.

In this session, Manish Rai will explore a range of considerations for enterprises as they implement and scale a team of AI agents to set themselves up for long-term success. It will encompass topics such as function management, and how to govern the tools AI agents will have access to — while maintaining guardrails. As use cases for AI agents expand to non-technical teams, Rai will also discuss key stakeholders for overseeing implementation to prevent shadow data. Finally, he will provide tips for organizations seeking to rework their overall data governance framework to meet the moment head on, and be prepared for a new agentic workforce.
