Last week I had the honor of delivering a commencement speech at the University of Namur (uNamur) for their 2025 graduation ceremony.
Standing in front of freshly minted computer science graduates, I talked about the future of software development in the age of AI. My message to them was simple: AI will not make you obsolete. We’ve seen tools evolve over the decades, from punch cards to IDEs to AI-assisted coding, but the work remains yours, not the tool’s. The developers who will thrive are those who stay curious, think in systems, communicate with precision, and take ownership of what they build. The world needs more people with coding skills, not fewer. AI raises the bar on what we can accomplish, and that’s a good thing.
Now, let’s get into this week’s AWS news.
