About the Event

Curious about Software Development and AI? Join us for a free online event where you’ll get a front-row seat to an interactive live demo with Software Development Bootcamp instructor Randy Gulak. Watch as he builds a music visualizer web app using AI tools like ChatGPT and GitHub Copilot—with input from the audience. See how developers go from idea to working code in real time—and discover where human creativity and judgment still lead the way.

You’ll also hear from Nathan Chung, Software Engineer at TikTok, as we explore how today’s developers are using AI to accelerate prototyping and solve real-world problems.
