DESCRIPTION:As part of &quot;IEEE Day: Advancing Tech For Us&quot;\, IEEE CS ESPRIT S
 BC hosted a session titled “AI&#39;s Impact on Modern Software Engineering
 ”\, discussing how artificial intelligence is transforming software deve
 lopment practices\, from code generation and testing to the evolving respo
 nsibilities of software engineers.\n\nThe speaker\, Ahmed Bouhlel\, Chair 
 of the IEEE CS ESPRIT SBC\, explained where AI enters the software enginee
 ring process and why the hindrance is moving from writing code to verifyin
 g it. He separated three modes that are often confused (traditional engine
 ering\, engineering of AI/ML\, and engineering with AI) and mapped the AI 
 coding stack from code generation models to IDE assistants like GitHub Cop
 ilot to autonomous agents. The session also covered the opportunity for op
 en-source alternatives alongside licensing risks\, why unchecked AI code f
 ails in production (poor structure\, duplication\, and blind trust)\, and 
 the &quot;junior developer paradox&quot;\, where AI-assisted juniors scored lower on
  debugging and comprehension. It closed with a shift toward spec- and veri
 fication-heavy workflows and three practical takeaways: deploy AI selectiv
 ely\, automate verification in CI\, and protect the talent pipeline. Guide
 d by the 2025-2030 IEEE Strategic Plan goal to Drive\, the session encoura
 ged innovation alongside the ethical and responsible use of technology.\n\
