DESCRIPTION:Speaker: \nAndrey Breslav is the creator of the Kotlin program
 ming language and led its development at JetBrains from its inception to m
 illions of users worldwide. He is the founder of CodeSpeak.dev\, a next-ge
 neration programming language powered by large language models (LLMs).\n\n
 Abstract:\nAndrey will discuss the evolution of programming languages\, wh
 at makes them succeed or fail\, and how LLMs are likely to influence the l
 anguages of the future. Key topics include: (1) how to design a programmin
 g language for a specific audience\; (2) which common pitfalls are tolerab
 le and which are fatal for a language\; and (3) what programming may look 
 like in ten years in light of the current AI boom.\n\nThe talk will summar
 ise lessons learned from building Kotlin as well as recent developments in
  AI-assisted programming\, and will offer a somewhat unconventional perspe
 ctive on the future of the field. It is intended as an interactive lecture
 \, with questions encouraged throughout\, fostering an open discussion abo
 ut programming languages\, developer tools\, and the ways they shape the p
 rofession.\n\nRegistration form: https://form.typeform.com/to/Kt0yOazT  \n
