First AI gave us code completion, predicting the lines of code, functions, and boilerplate we needed based on what we’d already typed. Then came code suggestions and code generation, where AI writes new code or improves existing code based on a natural language prompt.
Today, coding agents can look at your code, suggest improvements, compile and test the improved code, and iterate on that to come up with something better, faster, and safer. They can plan, write, test, review, and debug code, and chat with you about all of the above. They can tackle complex development workflows entirely on their own.
What will AI do for developers next? There is no better place to find out than TechCrunch Disrupt, TechCrunch’s annual showcase of technology startups and tech innovation. Sign up now for TechCrunch Disrupt 2026 and receive a 25% discount by using promo code INFOWORLD25.
TechCrunch Disrupt 2026 takes place October 13-15 at Moscone West Convention Center in San Francisco, where you’ll rub shoulders with startup founders, investors, AI experts, software engineers, and all manner of technology builders and innovators. Over three jam-packed days, you’ll be treated to 200+ conference sessions across six stages, led by 250+ technology leaders.
You’ll learn what’s next in AI and tech, and how AI agents and generative AI are changing software engineering, developer tools, enterprise software, and information security. You’ll learn how AI is reshaping SaaS and cloud infrastructure, how companies are building and deploying AI systems, and how AI is driving innovation in finance, healthcare, manufacturing, and other industries.
You’ll even learn how Anthropic, the company behind Claude Code, uses fleets of coding agents in its own software engineering work. This session, by Anthropic technical staff members Steve Androulakis and Sachin Malhotra, will provide you with practical patterns for delegating agents, reviewing their output, and recovering when they get things wrong.
The star-studded lineup for TechCrunch Disrupt 2026 features technology leaders from Amazon, Anthropic, Atlassian, Databricks, Flock, Glean, Google, NVIDIA, Okta, OpenAI, Replit, Runware, Together AI, and many other companies on the cutting edge of AI and software tech. Don’t miss your opportunity to connect with peers, exchange ideas, and explore the latest innovations at this premier event.
