Rethinking Software and Software Engineering in the Era of Foundation Models

Explore the transformative impact of Foundation Models (FMs) on software development in this insightful 33-minute talk by Ahmed E. Hassan from Queen's University. Delve into the concept of FMware, software built using Large Language Models (LLMs) and other FMs, and examine the unique challenges it presents to traditional software engineering practices. Learn about the 10 key challenges identified in SE4FMware development, including issues related to prompts, agents, orchestration, and the inherent limitations of FMs such as hallucination. Gain valuable insights into the future of software engineering and discover potential paths for innovation in this rapidly evolving field. Connect with additional resources and join the conversation on rethinking software development in the era of AI and foundation models.
