For decades, software systems were built on certainty: declarative programming, deterministic logic, and tests that guaranteed repeatable outcomes. Correctness was defined, provable, and stable. Generative and non declarative systems challenge that foundation. These systems introduce ambiguity by design, producing outputs that are probabilistic, emergent, and negotiated rather than prescribed. This keynote examines what this shift means for how we design, reason about, and trust software. It explores how notions of correctness change when systems no longer strictly obey instructions, and how developers and organizations can navigate ambiguity while still building systems that deserve confidence.
What You Will Learn
How generative and non declarative systems change traditional definitions of correctness
The practical and philosophical implications of building software with probabilistic, emergent behavior
Strategies for managing ambiguity without losing trust in systems and outcomes
Who Should Attend
Software Developers working with AI enabled systems
Software Architects designing modern application platforms
Engineering Leaders and Technical Managers
Anyone responsible for defining quality, correctness, or trust in software systems
