Explore the integration of AI in API development through SDK generation from OpenAPI, enhancing code reliability and simplifying API consumption and adoption.
This is the recording from an API meetup held in San Francisco on the topic of API Adoption in the Age of AI Code Assistants: Risks and OpportunitiesThe key topics Covered in the video are:
Still, have questions about increasing API consumption through SDKs and AI?
CoPilots or AI Coding Assistants have become valuable handy tools for developers, but how reliable are these tools when it comes to integrate APIs? Their semantic limitations are well known, but can they still generate usable code by better prompt engineering? Can they understand workflows and chain API calls accordingly? Moreover, are they intelligent enough to ease developers onboarding by answering their queries accurately?
In this talk, Adeel will discuss the aforementioned questions and share the learnings from building an API CoPilot, where his team trained AI on a traditional code-generator to minimise its hallucination problems. Adeel will discuss the steps of API consumption/integration and analyse with examples where Gen-AI can be helpful and where the traditional code generation techniques are better. The talk will be concluded with a demo of creating a user playlist using Spotify API, first without the help of AI then with the help of generative AI.
