Imagine sitting by the beautiful Croation coast, talking about the future of a 60-year-old programming language. Sounds like a contradiction? Not when AI joins the conversation.
This session takes you beyond the buzzwords into a candid, real-world chat about the intersection of legacy systems and cutting-edge artificial intelligence. Philipp, Max and Tim bring together diverse frontline perspectives, spanning hands-on COBOL modernization, agentic AI integration and mainframe development.
Together, they will explore how generative AI and modern copilots are fundamentally reshaping development on z/OS. What happens when you combine decades of rock-solid business logic with intelligent assistants like IBM watsonx or Bob? How are these tools actually being used to accelerate proficiency for new-to-Z professionals and streamline complex DevOps workflows?
This isn’t just a presentation of theoretical roadmaps. It’s an open, relaxed discussion about the successes, the practical challenges, and the everyday realities of bridging the gap between classic environments and modern workflows.
Join us for an engaging chat about code, coastlines, and the future of AI on Z.
