>> Hello. Good morning. [music]

[applause]

Welcome to the 2025 AI Engineering Code

Summit in New York. How are we doing?

All right, it's early. It's Friday.

Thank you all for being here. Raise your

hand if you've been to one of these

events before, an AI engineering

conference before. All right, pretty

good. So, for those on uh those watching

live stream, about half the hands up,

keep your hands up. Keep your hands up.

Two or more events.

Okay, still have a couple. Three,

four.

All right, one, two hands. Five.

Are you sure? There's only been four,

Alex.

Okay. Okay. We We'll talk afterwards.

Okay. Well, welcome. Whether it's your

first time or you've been to many of

these. We're all excited you're here.

Um, my name is Jed Borvick. Um, I'm

Gemini's assistant at Google and I also

work on the Jules coding agent. I lead

the product engineering team. Um, and

I'm your MC for today. So, why are we

here? I'm sure many of you are familiar

with Richard Hamming's famous you and

your research talk. In that talk, he

describes asking his colleagues, what's

the most important problem in your

field? And then right after that, he

asks, "So why aren't you working on

that?" I spend a lot of time hiring and

this idea comes up again and again. If

you're working in technology, the most

important problem of our day is AI. And

if you're working on applied AI, your

most important problem is code.

This is a special event to push the

whole AI coding industry forward. It's

not event for a single company but

across all companies in this industry.

The AI engineering conference has two

brands a world's fair and a summit. This

being a summit event is intentionally

smaller than the world's fair. It's

intentionally single track. It's

designed to bring the best people

together in the world about a single

important theme

for this event. That theme is AI coding.

Yesterday, many of you also experienced

a leadership track. Make some noise so

we know you're still alive if you were

in that track.

>> For those of you who are there, shout

out some of your favorite talks.

>> Stanford.

>> Yeah, Stanford. Yeah, that was a good

That was a great one.

>> Jean and Steve.

>> Jean and Steve. That was that was a

spicy one. What else?

>> Every Dan from Every

>> Ah, good choice. Good choice.

Okay. Well, yesterday was a great day.

It was about how AI is transforming

software organizations. Today we're

going to dive into the patterns,

systems, and products that make all of

that possible. But whether you consider

yourself an AI leader, an AI engineer,

or something in between, we're glad

you're here.

We also wouldn't be here without our

amazing sponsors. I would like to thank

them, especially our presenting sponsor,

DeMind.

Yeah, give it up. Give it up. [applause]

And what an amazing week for DeepMind.

I'm biased, but I hope you all get a

chance to use Gemini 3 and Nano Banana

Pro, which came out this week.

I'd also like to thank Anthropic as our

platinum sponsor and the gold sponsors

you see on this screen. Yeah, we we'll

do one big round at the end. And

finally, we want to thank our silver

sponsors. Let's put our hands together

for all of these sponsors. Yeah, give it

up. Give it up. [applause]

All these sponsors will be downstairs in

the expo area. They have booths and um I

recommend going down there to chat with

folks from all these companies. They'll

be open all day after the keynotes.

All right, with that, let's get started.
