Leading Futurum analyst and product creator Mitch Ashley will examine how AI is redefining the software development lifecycle well beyond code-writing assistants. While LLM-based code generators like Claude Code, AI-powered CLIs, and editors such as Cursor have set the stage, the more significant movement is the wave of vendor products introducing AI across every phase of the SDLC. Mitch will spotlight key trends and where he expects the next 12–18 months to bring notable advances in AI-native automation and agent-driven operations.Attendees will gain an industry analyst’s perspective on the vendor strategies shaping this fast-moving move to AI with practical insights into how these AI capabilities will impact DevOps practices and the future of software delivery.
