I quote from the VERSEN website: VERSEN is " the Dutch National Association for Software Engineering. Its mission is to bring together researchers, educators and practitioners in the field of software engineering ") (I haven't been in Utrecht in a while. It was great to be back. I love the campus and the science park.) My keynote presentation had the title " Software Engineering Career Planning in the Age of AGI+/- ". My slides are available here: [ .pdf ] Loads of relevant content is linked on those slides, but there is probably not much ROI from the slides alone. I want to call out though my DOs and the DON'Ts for teaching adaptation in software engineering. SE Teaching Adaptation — DON’Ts Don’t ban the use of AI. Don’t ignore the new role of AI. Don’t grade homework likely done by LLM. Don’t aim at outsmarting th
