Abstracts & bios:
"AI Tooling for Scala Developers - What JetBrains Brings to the Table", Maciej Gorywoda
In the last few years, one of the leading new areas of development in JetBrains has been AI tooling. It started with simple access to an external large language model within IntelliJ IDEA – but we didn’t stop there.
Today, JetBrains offers a wide range of new features and plugins that can make software developers work more quickly and productively. During this talk, we will go through the most important of them – AI Assistant, local and cloud completion, connecting to local LLMs, and some more. We will discuss how these tools can boost your productivity and improve your coding experience. We will also delve into… sorry, I mean, we will talk about JetBrains Junie, AI agents in general, and the future of AI tooling.
The talk will consist of animated infographics and live coding examples.
I’m a Product Marketing Manager in the IntelliJ Scala team at JetBrains. I graduated from Warsaw University of Technology in 2005 with an MSc in artificial neural networks. I worked as a video game AI expert, a web tools and Android developer, a Scala software developer, and since two years ago a person who writes and talks publicly about features of IntelliJ Idea with the Scala Plugin. In 2024, I became a Scala Ambassador. In my free time, I train martial arts, read lots of history books, and run a YouTube channel.
