Two Buzzwords Finally Meet! How should we manage AI in large organizations? What are the “services” developers need to add AI to enterprise apps, and what role do platform engineers take? Where do data scientists fit in? How does MCP, A2A, and whatever the latest AI API is fit in? There are so many questions because the field of managing AI in enterprises barely exists. We need to figure it out quickly however, before we see a repeat of a past patterns, like shadow AI and unmanageable apps in production. Based on real-world examples, this talk will go over what we currently know about using platform engineering to help developers use AI.

Thanks for taking the time to consider my talk!
