​Book Launch & Workshop: The AI‑DLC Handbook – Reimagining Software Development with AI

​​📖 Event Description

​​Artificial Intelligence is reshaping how software is built—but most development lifecycles have not evolved to reflect this shift.

​​Join us at the AWS Office, Bengaluru for the official launch of
📘 The AI‑DLC Handbook: Reimagining Software Development with AI
by Bhuvaneswari Subramani, AWS Hero, AWS Ambassador, and Google Women Techmakers Ambassador.

​​The event will begin with a book launch announcement by Raja SP, followed by a panel discussion with industry leaders on how AI‑Driven Development Lifecycle (AI‑DLC) is changing the way teams design, build, and maintain software systems.

​​AI‑DLC reimagines traditional SDLC by bringing humans and AI into a single, continuous flow—where AI actively participates across planning, coding, testing, and validation, while humans remain accountable for direction, quality, and decision‑making.

​​In addition to the launch and panel discussion, attendees will have the opportunity to:

• ​​Interact with the author during a book signing and meet‑and‑greet

• ​​Participate in a hands‑on workshop on AI‑DLC, focused on practical adoption and real‑world workflows by AWS experts and AWS Heroes

​​This event is designed to be practical, experience‑driven, and community‑focused, emphasizing responsible and human‑led AI adoption in modern software engineering.
