Panel: AI in Quality: What's Actually Working
Abstract
Everyone’s adding AI to their workflows — but what’s actually delivering results and what’s just noise? This panel gets practical: what tools are worth adopting, what skills teams need to build, and what’s quietly failing that nobody talks about on stage. Practitioners share what changed when they brought AI into how they ship software — what broke before, what works now, and what they’d do differently. Whether you’re in QA, engineering, product, or building AI systems yourself — if you’re responsible for shipping reliable software faster, this is the session to take notes.
