In the past year, the world has been introduced to increasingly innovative smart assistants, powered by generative AI. More and more complex questions are being answered, and with the introduction of agents, tasks can even be performed automatically and partially autonomously.
But what does this mean for the Mendix Community? Mendix Assist simplifies Mendix application development for both new and experienced developers. But there is also a lot going on at the edge of the platform. There is a global discussion about the potential for generative AI to replace the high-code developer partially. How can we use this high-code assistance during our widget development workflow? We explored it for you!
AI Showdown – The ComparisonThis Meetup is the result of weeks of research in which Erick Souza, Tobias Kuhn, Lukas Tost and myself used different AI code assistants in developing a widget for a fictional use case. Which assistant provides valuable answers? How up-to-date is the assistants' knowledge? Which code examples are qualitative? And does it actually make the development of a widget faster, better, or of higher quality? Last but not least, what is our role in interacting with the assistants, and what did we learn about asking the right questions?
The AI assistants we cover are the publicly available versions of ChatGPT 4, Google Gemini, Microsoft Copilot, and Amazon CodeWhisperer.
The presentations will conclude with a Q&A, with time and space to ask your questions to all researchers and speakers. You’re also welcome to share your own experience with the crowd.
If you can't make it in person, we also covered you with a live stream. Details will be added soon.
See you there!

Video & Photo
We would like to draw your attention to the fact that photo and/or video recordings are made during this meetup. These recordings may be used by Mendix and CLEVR for social media purposes. If you want to be excluded from these recordings, we ask you to inform us upon registration on the day of the event. Alternatively, you can also contact the photographer during the event.
Accessibility
The presentation will be held in a room that is only accessible via multiple stairs. However, we have ensured that the location where we will be eating is wheelchair accessible. If you cannot use the stairs, we have arranged to set up a meeting room with a live stream of the event so you can still participate. If you would like to use this opportunity, we would be more than happy to accommodate you. Please let us know in advance so we can make the necessary preparations.
