CroAI Day 0 @ Infobip Shift

Are you interested in how artificial intelligence is fundamentally changing the way we learn, code, and build careers? Join us for a relaxed CroAI Day 0 meetup in Zadar – the official warm-up for this year’s Infobip Shift conference! 📅 Program 6:00 – 6:45 PM | Keynote: Indie Development in the Age of Vibe Coding Speaker: Ive Botunac (President of the Board, CroAI; Assistant Professor, University of Zadar) What does it look like today when an individual or a small team independently develops and maintains their own product without major investors? Ive will use practical examples to show how one person can simultaneously take on the roles of developer, designer, marketer, and customer support. We’ll also explore the phenomenon of “vibe coding” (AI-assisted development), which has dramatically accelerated idea testing and lowered the barriers to entering the market. The key question: In such an automated environment, what is actually left for humans to do? 7:00 – 8:00 PM | Panel: Generation Copilot: Is Ethics in Code a Matter of Education or Law? In an age where vibe coding allows us to test ideas instantly, we are facing entirely new engineering and human challenges. How do we mentor a junior developer who has never written a line of code without Copilot? Are new generations losing the ability to engage in deep problem-solving if technology always provides a ready-made answer? The question is no longer what AI can do, but how we will guide the people who use it. Through a discussion involving engineers, academia, and legal experts, we want to explore whether we need a stronger legal framework or a stronger moral compass that we should start building in the classroom. Panelists: From 8:00 PM | Socializing & Networking Please note that the working language of this event is Croatian.
