Onboarding to a "legacy" codebase with the help of AI - Much of the attention to generative AI in software development is about generating code. But it may have a more useful role in helping us understand existing code. This is especially true for older codebases that are getting hard to maintain (“legacy”) or to improve onboarding in teams that have a lot of fluctuation. Birgitta Böckeler demonstrates the possibilities here by picking an issue from an open-source hospital management system and exploring how AI could help her deal with it. [Martin Fowler]

Refresh of the PoEAA catalog page - From time to time I take a look at my site analytics to see how much traffic various bits of this site get. When doing this I saw that I continue to get a lot of traffic to the Catalog of Patterns of Enterprise Application Architecture. I put this together not long after writing the book, and it’s rather minimal. Since it still gets traffic I felt it was time for some sprucing up. The content is the same, summaries of the patterns in the book. I’ve changed the main catalog page to include the pattern intents. [Martin Fowler]
Instead of restricting AI and algorithms, make them explainable - There's a lot of discussion about using regulation to restrict the use of AI and other software algorithms. I think that the better regulation would be to ensure that decisions made by software must be explainable. [Martin Fowler]
