Software development has continuously evolved over the past 75 years – from mainframes to cloud systems to artificial intelligence. Each era expanded our capabilities but also increased complexity. In this live event, Neil Douek demonstrates how platform engineering represents the next logical step in this evolution: the perfect fusion of human intelligence and AI-driven automation. Discover how the gap between idea and execution continues to shrink and how autonomous systems will shape the future of engineering.
Neil Douek guides you through the technical history of the past decades, showing how reliability defined the pioneers, agility defined the cloud era, and alignment will define the era of autonomous systems. Learn how AI and intelligent agents act as a “neuronic multiplier” to extend human thinking rather than just automate tasks. This event provides practical insights into the challenges and opportunities of modern platform engineering approaches and prepares you to actively shape the evolution of software development.
