BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--O’Reilly, the premier learning platform for technology professionals, today announced the third virtual conference in the AI Codecon series. Software Craftsmanship in the Age of AI will take place on Thursday, March 26, 2026, from 11:00am to 3:00pm ET, and is free for all attendees.

Cohosted by O’Reilly Media founder Tim O’Reilly and Google Cloud AI director Addy Osmani, this event is focused on exploring what it takes to build excellent software in the age of AI that creates value for all participants. The lineup features conversations and practical sessions from speakers who are already shipping agentic tools and systems in production. Key talks include:

“The future of software development won't be written by AI alone,” said Tim O’Reilly. “It will be crafted by developers who know how to build AI into systems that are legible, modifiable, composable, and shareable, the core properties that made open source transformative.”

Software engineers tasked with building and integrating reliable production-ready agents; designers and architects mapping current practices and identifying capability gaps; product managers learning to navigate new types of requirements; project managers helping coordinate multi-agent workflows; leaders trying to understand real business use cases for agentic AI; and everyone else eager to explore AI-enabled software development are encouraged to attend.
