Show Notes

Meet Hemant Kumar, Senior Director of Software Development, Oracle.


In this episode we discussed:

  • Understanding what customers actually need - Before building anything, you need to know what real problems you're solving for people.
  • AI is changing how we write code fast - Big companies like Microsoft and Google already use AI tools to write 25% of their code. AI isn't just writing code anymore - it's also checking quality and creating tests.
  • Using AI at big companies is different - Large organizations have strict rules about security and compliance that make adopting AI tools more complex than at smaller companies. The decisions they make also have to work for many years.
  • Oracle builds AI into everything - Instead of just adding AI features on top, Oracle weaves AI throughout their entire software.
  • As AI gets better at basic coding, developers need to focus more on big-picture design and how different systems work together.

Enjoy!
