Hi colleagues,
in this edition of the engineering ecosystem newsletter, we are switching to a curated format that features a selection of different topics. Our plan is to alternate between this format, which provides an overview of several subjects within the engineering ecosystem, and a format that focuses on a single, in-depth topic. In this curated edition, we will be covering a range of subjects:
Using AI assistance for Test Driven Development The blog Accelerate test-driven development with AI describes how GitHub CoPilot can be used as partner for Test Driven Development.
Microsoft Guidance: Guidance is a framework for controlling large language models which claims to be more effectively and efficiently than traditional prompting or chaining. It allows developers to interleave generation, prompting, and logical control into a single continuous flow matching how the language model actually processes the text.
How Generative AI Could Disrupt Creative Work: The article explores how generative AI, a type of AI that can produce new content such as text, images, and audio, could disrupt creative work in the future. It presents three possible scenarios: an explosion of AI-assisted innovation, a rise of AI-powered platforms and intermediaries, and a shift to AI-centric creativity. It also discusses the implications of these scenarios for businesses, workers, and society, and offers some recommendations for how to prepare for and leverage generative AI. The article argues that generative AI is not a threat to human creativity, but rather a new tool that can enhance it and create new opportunities. The article examines why relationships, trust, content governance and content curation are becoming more important in the era of generative AI. -Clean Code: The post on ABAP Cleaner on LinkedIn resonated extremely well -- with now more than 80k views, more than 900 likes and 140 reposts. Based on the post, some questions came, which I answer in follow-up posts.
Thanks and Regards,
Klaus
