The future of software development is here, and it’s agentic.
The call for proposals has closed.
Our first AI Codecon event, The End of Software Development as We Know It, was a huge success, so we’re doing a second one on September 9: Coding for the Agentic World. Our program is a mix of invited talks and your proposals. We are asking you to propose quick five-minute lightning talks about cutting-edge work. We aren’t looking for high-level discussions but for war stories, demos of products and workflows, innovative applications, and accounts of new tools that have changed how you work. You (collectively) are inventing the future at a furious rate. We would love to hear about work that will make people say “wow!” and rush to learn more. Your goal should be to make the emerging future happen faster by sharing what you’ve learned.
After reading your proposal, we may ask you to present it as proposed, modify it, expand it into a longer talk, join a discussion panel, or appear in our associated demo day program.
To get an idea of what we mean by a lightning talk, see this excerpt from Harper Reed’s talk at the first AI Codecon in May. While this was part of a larger talk, it gives that hands-on flavor we’re looking for. And Angie Jones’s talk on MCP is an excellent example that resulted from an actual lightning talk submission to the May event.
We’re also still interested in hearing about topics we explored in our previous call for proposals:
Please note: Presentations as proposed should be no longer than five minutes.
Our program committee will review all submissions and notify you of our decision by August 1.
