How should software engineering evolve for the age of AI? As organizations rush to weave GenAI and agentic AI into every product and workflow, engineering teams face a new reality: you can't scale AI without redesigning how software gets built.

In this episode, Gartner experts Manjunath Bhat, Akis Sklavounakis and Shameen Pillai break down what that redesign actually looks like. They'll explore the team structures that help scale GenAI to repeatable delivery, the platform patterns that reduce cognitive load and drive value, and the API strategies that AI implementation can't function without.

You'll learn:

Why GenAI efforts fail without the right team structures
How platform engineering reduces complexity and accelerates delivery
Why APIs are the backbone of GenAI and agentic AI
The five‑dimension API maturity model and where to focus first
The tools and next steps to scale AI safely and effectively
