How AI is Transforming Software Engineering
Armando Solar-Lezama Professor, MIT Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science Associate Director and COO, MIT Computer Science & Artificial Intelligence Laboratory
AI is not just transforming industries—it’s revolutionizing software development. From AI-assisted coding to automated testing and lifecycle management, new tools are enhancing productivity, quality, and security. The speaker will explore the impact of AI-driven programming, the evolving role of software engineers, and the challenges of ensuring control, reliability, and trust in AI-generated code.
Breast cancer is global problem with over 500,000 women dying from the disease every year, yet all of our decisions and insights are based on only a fraction of the information that exists at both the patient and population level. In this talk, we explore a machine learning approach to cancer that integrates rich patient information at population scale, and discuss the type of tools this enables. We have developed A.I systems for automatically reading mammograms, performing personalized risk assessment and mining medical records and implemented them clinically at Massachusetts General Hospital.
