The landscape of requirements elicitation is evolving rapidly. Traditional methods struggle with incomplete information, miscommunication, and pressing deadlines. Artificial intelligence presents unprecedented opportunities to enhance accuracy, efficiency, and depth in requirements processes. This comprehensive presentation demonstrates how AI can transform every aspect of requirements management - from initial elicitation through analysis, refinement, and modelling. Participants will explore practical applications of AI-driven techniques and tools that streamline processes, eliminate ambiguities, and foster superior stakeholder communication.

Time: 8:30AM - 3:00 PM (AI Day at SFU Downtown Campus); 04:00PM - 08:00 PM (Summer Social at Harbour Green Park)

As AI continues to transform how we work, it's tempting to lean heavily on technology to streamline processes and boost productivity. However, in Agile environments, where collaboration, communication, and adaptability are key, there’s a delicate balance to maintain. This talk will explore the importance of leveraging AI to handle repetitive, mundane tasks—freeing teams to focus on what matters most: human interaction, creative problem-solving, and innovation. With the help of a roleplay, we’ll discuss how AI can act as a powerful enabler without overshadowing the core principles of Agile, where face-to-face collaboration, empathy, and team dynamics are irreplaceable. Attendees will learn practical strategies for integrating AI tools in a way that enhances, rather than diminishes, the human element. By the end of this session, you'll have actionable insights on using AI to empower teams, without compromising the human touch that makes Agile truly effective.
