From Pilot to Impact: How AI Is Transforming Large‑Scale Engineering

Abstract

In large, highly regulated enterprises like ING, adopting AI in engineering isn’t as simple as enabling a new tool — it’s a fundamental shift in how thousands of engineers design, build, and deliver software. This talk shares how ING introduced GitHub Copilot to more than 5,000 engineers, and what it truly takes to measure, scale, and sustain AI‑driven productivity across a complex, global organization.

We will walk through ING’s journey from early pilots to full‑scale rollout, highlighting measurable productivity outcomes as well as the cultural, operational, and engineering transformations required to make AI adoption stick. Moreover, we will share practical lessons learned and insights, which can be relevant to any organization navigating AI adoption at enterprise scale.
