​6:30 PM - AI as a Teammate: Driving Double-Digit Engineering Productivity Gains, Nirmal Jingar - AI Engineering Executive, Wayfair

AI is no longer just a tool for automation. It is becoming an active teammate in the software development lifecycle. By embedding AI into daily workflows, teams can reduce time spent on repetitive tasks, accelerate code reviews, and improve decision quality through faster access to context and insights. This talk explores how treating AI as a collaborative partner, rather than a passive assistant, drives measurable efficiency gains while maintaining code quality and engineering rigor.

​7:15 PM - Beyond the Private Chatbot: Bringing AI to Collaborative Work - Ananya Shah, AI Strategist & Consultant

​AI has reshaped individual productivity. We write, research, code, and ramp up faster than ever. But collaborative workflows haven't kept pace. Teams still run on pre-AI processes while each person builds richer context inside their own private chatbot. The result is a paradox: individuals get more capable as shared context grows more fragmented.

​This talk explores the practical patterns for building collaborative AI systems through shared skills, context design, and team-level workflow changes that make AI useful for the whole organization, not just one person.

​7:45 PM - Networking
