Summary
Artificial intelligence is changing software development at a speed we have rarely seen before.Developers have already moved from writing every line of code themselves to working with AI assistants that can generate code, explain unfamiliar systems, create tests, debug applications, and automate repetitive work.But according to Microsoft MVP Andre Baltieri, that is only the beginning.In this episode of M365.FM, Mirko Peters sits down with Andre for a deep dive into the transition from traditional software development to AI-assisted development, coding agents, agentic architectures, Microsoft Agent Framework, .NET, RAG, context engineering, security, and the economics of generative AI. FROM .NET IN 2003 TO THE AI ERA Andre takes us back to the early days of .NET and C#, when learning a new Microsoft technology often meant purchasing official training and traveling to another city.Since then, software development has moved through desktop, web, mobile, cloud, containers, microservices, and serverless computing.Andre argues that the transition to AI feels fundamentally different. Instead of simply introducing another platform or framework, AI introduces a new way for humans to interact with software. AI ASSISTANTS VS. AI CODING AGENTS There is an important difference between having an AI assistant inside your IDE and delegating work to an agent.An assistant can explain code, suggest refactoring, answer questions, and help developers understand their applications.An agent can receive a goal, create a plan, divide the work into smaller tasks, use tools, coordinate additional agents, and implement significant parts of the solution.Andre explains how this is already changing his own development workflow, with AI now generating much of the code he previously would have written…
