Presentation: Choosing Your AI Copilot: Maximizing Developer Productivity

Sepehr Khosravi: I'm Sepehr. I'm a Machine Learning Platform Engineer at Coinbase. I also teach part-time at UC Berkeley, a couple of different AI classes. I'm also the founder of AI Scouts, which is a free camp I run for teens to learn AI. I used to work at a teddy bear company before coming into tech. This is my second career. Before hopping into choosing your favorite AI copilot, one thing I want to go over is seeing where do we stand today in terms of developer productivity and AI tools.
