The era of apps is giving way to AI-native workflows
The era of apps is giving way to AI-native workflows, and that shift is about more than replacing interfaces. It's about rethinking how work gets done. Traditional spreadsheets still demand manual effort, but AI-native tools meet you halfway, handling the heavy lifting while you focus on outcomes. This isn't about discarding what works; it's about making data feel less like a chore and more like a conversation.
Explore the next frontier of personal computing with Panos Panay
Amazon's Panos Panay will make his case for what comes after the smartphone at TechCrunch Disrupt 2026. It's a bold question, and he's positioned to answer it with authority.

If you're questioning how deeply we should trust these evolving tools, our piece on talking to an AI clone offers a useful counterpoint. For now, the conversation starts with Panay. We'll be listening.
Explore how teams balance AI progress with human-centered engineering in 2026
The 2026 Engineering Culture Trends Report zeroes in on something easy to overlook: the humans behind the algorithms. Ben Linders and his panel of QCon speakers and InfoQ contributors tackle AI adoption maturity, shifting team structures, and the roles that are transforming as a result. It is a grounded look at what changes when engineering cultures evolve. For a deeper dive into the enterprise side, our related article, "Unlock AI's Enterprise Potential," pairs well with this discussion.
