Latest Software Engineering Trends

This session was about the latest Software Engineering Trends in the industry currently and which are most likely to be a Trend for the upcoming years. It was conducted by the hSenid mobile company. I could not attend it unfortunately, but if I had attended it, I would have learnt a lot of some of which are below.



Artificial Intelligence is a key Area dominating right now. Lots of huge companies have started to move towards AI and is impacting the world on a great scale already. If you want to know the use of AI, let's say you know to drive. Two of your friends also know to drive. When you drive more and more, you get more wiser by the experiences you face daily right? So, let's say you gain a good experience on Road while driving. What is the likelihood of your friend who hasn't faced such a situation on road, using your experience to handle it better? (Let's say a person jumps in front of the vehicle suddenly and you hit the person slightly although no serious damages, your friend faces a similar situation now. Can he avoid it by learning from your experience?) The likelihood of you using your friends' experience in this case is very low. But using AI, there are self driving cars now. Let's say there are 100,000 cars in the network which self drive. So, using the experience of one car, the remaining 99,999 cars learn it and when it faces a similar situation, it uses previous experience for the betterment. This gives a huge edge for us in using this Technology. But there is a potential downside as well which only a few percentage of people are consciously aware of. If you have ever seen the movie, "I Robot" where the Robots start a revolution to dominate and defeat the human race, that thing is not something to neglect as of now. Elon Musk, the saviour of the World right now working hard towards sustainable future goals on all of his companies like spacex, solar city and Tesla is also conducting a research institute with the Goal of "Safe Artificial Intelligence" which simply means how we can use this technology in a safe manner without any effects as mentioned previously. All in all, this is a key Area for years to come.



IOT is the Internet of Things which is a network of embedded devices with electronics, sensors, actuators, software, etc. This is helping massively increase functionality of the things that we already have. The possibilities seem endless as of now.



Virtual Reality is another amazing Area which is already making an excellent change in the World. Nowadays even Doctors use this technology to do Treatment sessions where the patients with mental issues get healed by virtually being in an environment which could heal their mental problem.



Augmented Reality too is a connected Technology with VR. (Virtual Reality) This is said to be the next Trillion Dollar Industry for the upcoming years by Jay Samit, serial entrepreneur and Author of Best Selling Book Disrupt Yourself.
