Join us for a joint meetup with REFACTR.TECH, ATL JavaScript, React ATL, Modern Web ATL, and Atlanta Vue.js Meetup. This oneβs all about how people are actually building with AI right now from the interfaces users interact with to the systems behind the scenes. Weβll get into accessibility, systems thinking, and real-world workflows, and end with a leadership fireside chat. Talks The Anatomy of an Accessible Chat Interface [Homer Gaines](https://www.linkedin.com/in/homergaines/), Director of Engineering Accessibility, Coforma The most common entry point when using AI is the chat or prompt interface. Unfortunately, many of these popular portals to generative content are not accessible to all. Let's examine the anatomy and lay the groundwork for an accessible interface. From Snippets to Systems: How Copilot Helped Me Understand Systems Design [Allison Higgins](https://www.linkedin.com/in/allison-higgins6/), CTO, Kolor Koded Enterprises, LLC GitHub Copilot is often described as an AI pair programmer, but it isnβt a junior developer or a senior engineer. The presentation will cover using Copilot as a probabilistic code generator and how that limitation makes it a very empowering tool for all levels of developers. In this presentation, I will share how working with Copilot transformed the way I think about systems design, software architecture, and component creation. Instead of treating it as a tool for faster autocomplete, I began using it as an architectural feedback loop: one that reflects the clarity and limits of my design decisions back to me.
