Description
Summary Description: We’re looking for an experienced AI Engineer or "Next-Gen" Full-Stack Developer to lead a 1-hour guided conversation with a 15-year-old homeschooling student. The session should provide an engaging, hands-on introduction to how modern AI is transforming software development — shifting from traditional programming to prompt-driven development and autonomous agentic workflows. The goal is to demystify how apps are built today using AI, moving past basic chatbot interactions to show the real-world logic of how software is designed, tested, and deployed using advanced AI tools. Suggested Topics to Cover: - Advanced Prompt Engineering for Coding: How to shift from simple questions to structuring high-level logical instructions that guide an AI to generate clean, functional code. - The Power of Agentic Workflows: What an AI "agent" is, how it differs from a standard LLM, and how agentic systems autonomously plan tasks, use development tools, read error logs, and debug their own code. - Next-Gen Development Tools: A brief look or demonstration of how cutting-edge tools (e.g., Cursor, v0.dev, Bolt.new, Replit Agent) allow developers to build entire web or mobile applications using natural language. - The Evolving Role of a Developer: How the day-to-day job of a software engineer is shifting from syntax writing to system architecture, logic design, and problem-solving. (You’re welcome to adapt or expand these topics based on your background.) Requirements: * Profe
