"In this session, we'll discuss how PM, engineering, and data science came together to build Visual Studio IntelliCode, which delivers context-aware code completion suggestions (IntelliSense). We'll take you through our journey of customer research, model tuning, and an overview of our engineering layout to showcase how you can think about adding #AI/ #ML capabilities to existing tools." - Allison Buchholtz-Au & Shengyu Fu from Microsoft on #QConai talk: http://bit.ly/2VZjneb
"From solid bi-annual goal setting to industry leading quality practices, we’ve found ways to evolve our practices beyond the bleeding edge and in this talk, we share how we do it.
