By 2026, talent scarcity is no longer a hiring problem, it is a structural risk. While 85 million roles may go unfilled by 2030, the deeper issue is not missing talent, but organizations’ inability to deploy skills quickly and flexibly under pressure.

This session reframes workforce optimization around team design. Drawing on applied work with technology teams and other constrained environments, it shows why narrowly specialized teams collapse under disruption and why multifunctionality and coverage are becoming strategic necessities.

Attendees will be introduced to an AI-driven workforce intelligence approach that models team reliability, flexibility, and resilience, simulates disruption scenarios (absences, role changes, skill gaps), and identifies where targeted skill development delivers the highest return. Organizations applying this model have improved team resilience by up to 10% while significantly reducing wasted training investment. The session equips product and technology leaders with a practical framework to redesign how work is structured before talent scarcity becomes operational failure.

The first section of the masterclass immerses participants in the modern AI development landscape and the role of AI-assisted engineering workflows.

You may have seen headlines about AI systems recommending that users eat rocks or put glue on pizza—classic examples of hallucinations. Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) is an architectural approach designed to reduce these failures by grounding model outputs in reliable, external knowledge.

At its core, RAG combines two components: a retriever (typically a vector database) that fetches relevant context, and a generator (an LLM) that uses this context to produce the final response. While the concept is deceptively simple, building and deploying RAG systems in production introduces a range of real-world challenges—from data quality and retrieval accuracy to latency, evaluation, and operational complexity.

In this talk, you’ll explore the most common failure modes of production RAG systems and learn practical techniques to mitigate—or eliminate—them, enabling more reliable, trustworthy AI applications.

In modern product development, the ability to integrate Generative AI into everyday workflows is no longer optional — it is rapidly becoming a core product leadership capability. Forward-thinking organizations recognize that embedding GenAI into product practices is essential to staying competitive, accelerating innovation, and increasing team effectiveness.

This session presents a real-world transformation journey of a multi-thousand-person Product Management organization — moving from a high-level, organization-wide AI strategy to practical, agent-enabled workflows embedded directly into teams’ daily operations. Participants will gain a structured, step-by-step framework for analyzing existing product creation processes and systematically introducing GenAI across the entire product lifecycle, including discovery and user research, ideation, experimentation, roadmap planning, and go-to-market execution.

Designed to be highly actionable, the session equips leaders with a proven transformation approach, concrete use cases, and clear starting points to enhance productivity, decision quality, and organizational learning velocity within their product teams.

Thanks to the general availability and widespread use of large language models such as ChatGPT, Gemini & Co., we have become aware of the disruptive importance of AI for our discipline. It is obvious that when testing AI systems, we must deal with new technologies, test techniques and therefore new requirements and skillsets for testers. Above all, AI-based systems will have a massive impact on the work of testers; large language models and other AI systems can already partially take over the work of testers.

What does this mean for the role of testing in the next few years? What changes will we have to adapt to and what will the role of testing look like in ten years? Will software testing, as we know it today, still play a role in the future? And if so, do we still need humans for this? In my talk, I would like to shed light on the current status of testing with AI, show possible future scenarios and try to find plausible answers to these questions.

In this session, you'll learn how Generative AI is transforming the developer experience by speeding up tasks throughout the development lifecycle. It helps with researching and evaluating system designs, building secure and scalable applications, upgrading existing ones, and optimizing performance. Generative AI can simplify these processes.

You'll also see how developers can use Generative AI to create specification documents, generate documentation, understand complex code, and more. This enhances productivity and streamlines the development process.
