The presentation will take place in Room 101 on Thursday, March 5, 2026 - 10:00 to 10:45

Join Nix Foundation President Ron Efroni and industry legend Kelsey Hightower for a discussion on Nix, AI, and the present and future of the SDLC. AI amplifies an already high-complexity status quo, with agents refactoring code, running builds, and managing production. AI workloads are stochastic, but environments can’t be. When toolchains drift, teams fall into an Abgrund. Nix brings reproducibility, determinism, declarative environments, and atomic rollbacks across OSes, architectures, and infrastructure. So—is now the time for Nix, or a both/and future, where Nix provides the deterministic foundation for agentic automation at scale?
