AI Engineering Conference in London with Microsoft and GitHub

AI Engineer Europe is a great reminder that the next phase of AI is firmly about engineering, not experimentation. 🤖 The focus on real‑world systems, agents in production and lessons learned at scale feels especially timely as more organisations move from pilots to platforms. It’s encouraging to see a community sharing what actually works — and what doesn’t — in practice. Well worth a look if you’re building or supporting AI capabilities in anger. 👉 https://lnkd.in/e47zNfma #AIEngineering #AgenticAI #ResponsibleAI #CloudAI #BuildInPublic

AI engineering is evolving fast, and so is the developer role. At AI Engineer Europe (8–10 Apr in London), Microsoft and GitHub are sharing hands-on sessions on how teams are building, testing, and running AI systems today. Expect real demos, real tools, and practical patterns you can apply straight away. Also check out GitHub Social Club on 7 Apr, a side event bringing developers, engineers and platform teams together to connect, share ideas and kick off the week ahead of the conference with an informal evening vibe. https://lnkd.in/gFmMYDFb #AIEngineering #AIDevelopers #GitHub #Microsoft #VSCode #AgenticAI #DeveloperExperience

Great momentum at AI Engineer Europe last week in London! We saw strong demand from all attendees for practical guidance on how Microsoft and GitHub support developers end to end, from dev tools and workflows through to platform and AI foundations. Across our GitHub sessions, 160+ attendees joined packed rooms to learn more about MCO Server, build interactive UIs in VS Code with MCP apps, and explore how the developer role is evolving beyond writing code to designing intelligent systems. All sessions were fully attended, with thoughtful questions and deep technical discussions throughout. The conversation does not stop here. With Microsoft Build coming up, there’s a lot more to share across developer support, platforms and AI. Sign up now! http://msft.it/6042Q74NM

Every year, Microsoft Build offers a great window into where real-world development is heading – and 2026 looks set to be no different. With a strong focus on AI systems, agent architectures, and scalable workflows, this year’s agenda moves the conversation from experimentation to production-ready impact. It’s encouraging to see continued emphasis on practical implementation, not just capability.

🎉 AI Engineer Europe energy = unmatched 🎉 Brilliant conversations, packed rooms, and a lot of deep dives into how AI actually gets built, shipped, and trusted in the real world. Loved supporting the community alongside #GitHub and #MicrosoftFoundry from agent workflows to observability, governance, and all the production‑grade questions developers are (rightly) asking. Special shout‑out to the workshop Nitya Narasimhan, PhD and I delivered: Mind the Gap (in Your Agent Observability) — IYKYK 😉 ▶️ https://lnkd.in/et2j6Bf9 👉 Check out why the London Underground analogy works so well for observability 🚇 It was an absolute pleasure to be part of AI Engineer Europe. Huge thanks to everyone who came by to share ideas and ask hard questions 🙌 #AIEngineerEurope #AIEngineering #MicrosoftFoundry #GitHub #Observability

🚨 BREAKING: Microsoft Pauses GitHub Copilot Subscriptions — Why? 😳 This caught a lot of developers off guard 🤯 GitHub Copilot has become a daily coding companion for many of us… 💻 and suddenly — new subscriptions are paused 🚫 👉 So what’s really happening? 🔍 What exactly did Microsoft announced 🤔 Possible reasons behind this move ⚡ What you should do next 🎯 Whether you're using AI for coding or planning to — this update matters 🔗 Watch out: https://lnkd.in/ga3rFvBD 💭 My take: This could be more than just a “pause” ⏸️ It might signal a bigger shift in AI developer tools strategy 🚀 👇 What do you think? Is this temporary… or something bigger coming? 🤨 #GitHubCopilot #Microsoft #AI #Developers #SoftwareEngineering #Coding #AItools #TechNews #CodeStreet

Public Service Announcement - Don't forget to turn this setting off by April 24th in your Github copilot section of your settings or Microsoft can use your code to train its models (Yes this includes private repos). #Microsoft #AI #Code

GitHub is racing to scale after AI agents drove a roughly 14x jump in code commits in a year. Read more: https://thein.fo/3PVyjv1

Microsoft’s Billions Blindly Ignored — GitHub Crumbles Microsoft is pouring billions into AI. But GitHub just showed cracks. That contrast is hard to ignore. While the future gets all the attention, the foundation is starting to feel neglected. Developers don’t just care about what’s next. They care about what works. Because if GitHub struggles, everything built on top of it feels the impact. Innovation means nothing without reliability. #Microsoft #GitHub #AI #Tech #Developers #Innovation
