Software Engineering Prioritizes AI Over Reliability
Austin Z. Henley, Associate Teaching Professor at Carnegie Mellon University, argues in a Feb. 22, 2026 draft for the Journal of Systems and Software that software engineering researchers are over-indexing on AI, citing ICSE '25 proportions and exponential AI conference growth. He warns this focus risks neglecting resilience, safety, trust, and cloud infrastructure research after repeated 2025 cloud outages that disrupted major services and caused large economic losses.
