Adept: Artificial intelligence, automation and laziness

Long time ago, in 2015, I presented at Testwarez the case of using machine learning to predict software defects – and the success of this technology in the company. In recent years, inspired by endless laziness in projects, I have decided to fully automate process of defect prediction in an easy and enjoyable way – by using open source. I invited to this initiative my friend and after some time we ended with success! We do not want to keep the way we have succeeded in secret: Would you like to be automatically notified, which software components the user will not like in the future? You are more than welcome to see my presentation!
