AI Engineer Code Summit: The Top AI Engineers in the World (and me) Assemble in NYC

This week, I am heading to NYC to attend and participate in the AI Engineer Code Summit. Google, Anthropic, OpenAI, Sourcegraph, Neo4j, Meta, Cursor, Cognition, and many, many others. I am really stoked about being invited to the event!

As they say, AI Engineer Code is by invitation only. They have hand-selected the top builders and leaders in AI Engineering for a highly curated experience. The team behind the event also helped organize meetups and hackathons happening around the city.

Some interesting sessions (from descriptions) that I am looking forward to:

  • 2026: The Year the IDE Died by Steve Yegge, Sourcegraph, and Gene Kim, IT Revolution
  • Autonomy Is All You Need by Michele Catasta, Replit
  • Don’t Build Agents, Build Skills Instead by Barry Zhang and Mahesh Murag, Anthropic
  • Research to Reality with Google DeepMind by Kat Kampf and Ammaar Reshi, Google

Some of the AI Engineer Code events will be live-streamed on YouTube. Check out the video here:

I will share my thoughts on the experience and key takeaways after the events, seminars, and workshops. Should be awesome, profound, scary, and awesome.

Side note: On the AI Engineer Code site, there was a cool wave ASCII art animation that showed the AIE logo, NYC landmarks in an animated wave. I used Claude to make me one.
