[Podcast] Software development 20 years ago, 20 years ahead

Software development has evolved significantly over the past two decades, moving from outdated practices like waterfall planning and CD installations to modern methodologies such as Agile and CI/CD, which have improved efficiency and reduced errors. The industry has shifted from being a niche field to a ubiquitous part of nearly every major company, with IT excellence now closely tied to business success. Looking ahead, the future of software development may involve increased regulation in certain sectors, such as medical software, and the rise of ethical considerations as technology advances. No-code and low-code platforms are making software development more accessible, raising questions about automation in the field and the role of AI-assisted development. As data becomes more available, researchers are likely to leverage it to develop smarter compilers and high-level programming patterns, potentially leading to a new wave of innovations driven by the interaction between AI and programming languages.
