East TN Tech Architecture: Building Software with AI in the Loop

We’re bringing together enterprise architecture and tech infrastructure professionals from across the Knoxville region to connect and share insights on how AI is transforming the software development process. We’ll take a closer look at what happens when AI accelerates dev output while introducing new challenges around code quality, testing, and security.

The evening will start with networking, drinks and appetizers, followed by a presentation and discussion.

PRESENTATION: Building Software with AI in the Loop

Matthew Park will lead a conversational session on how AI is changing the way teams approach software development. Find out what happened when his team at Cirrus Aircraft leveraged AI to 5x their productivity, while also introducing new complexities.

Matthew will share lessons learned, including new approaches to code verification and quality control. The discussion will also explore the evolving balance between AI-generated code and human expertise, with plenty of room to cover the questions and challenges you bring to the table.
