I would want to have conversation with you all about how you are using AI, which tools, which settings, which prompts, all to make it code with Umbraco 16 for the best. Are you afraid of what's going to happen the next years, or are you embracing it and delivering even better/nices/complexer sites with all this new possibilities?

I've been wanting to do an online meetup around this as well! I saw this meetup and it looked very interesting: https://www.meetup.com/umbleeds/events/310727279/ Maybe @olliepicton, @Phil Whittaker and Ali (not sure if he's here) would like to do an online version of this one afterwards? 🤞
We also seem to end up talking about AI quite a bit at the Umbraco Community Hour meetups, next one is Wednesday: https://www.meetup.com/umbraco-virtual/events/309273708/

Hey @Sebastiaan, I'll ask the rest on Thursday but I don't see any reason why we shouldn't do an online version at some point.

@Remko We're currently using Github Copilot in VIsual Studio and Visual Studio Code. I'm mostly using the Claude 4 Sonnet model, but I must say that GPT-5 is also not too bad. GPT-4 is good for simpeler tasks, but that models fails in complexer tasks. I'm not afraid of my job if that what you mean. We're software engineers, not coders. AI is just another tool to make your life easier, especially the boring stuff. But if you really want to have a maintainable, good quality application, it's much more than just the code. It's about translating requests and intent of a client request and also taking future development into consideration. And also translating that into good prompts AND being able to check if solutions are the way to go. So yes, we'll probably write less code ourselves, but software engineers will always be needed.
