Abstract
AI4SWEng, a Horizon Europe project that will be active from 2025 until 2028, unites 15 leading partners across the European Union, Switzerland and Turkey, combining experts in Model-Driven Software Engineering and trustworthy AI, with a special focus on applying Large Language Models. The project addresses complex challenges in industries such as healthcare, cyber-physical systems, and electric vehicles, focusing on multi-architectural and resource-constrained systems. Our mission is to transform agile software development by leveraging AI to boost efficiency, reliability, and security while ensuring ethical and regulatory compliance. The goal is to deliver scalable, sustainable, and socially responsible solutions that accelerate time-to-market without compromising quality. The AI4SWEng project will deliver an AI-powered software engineering suite providing end-to-end support for the software lifecycle, from code generation and advanced debugging to security, energy efficiency, and project management. By reducing pain points and enhancing productivity, the suite/platform aims to reduce developer stress, foster creativity, and improve job satisfaction. With a commitment to user-centred design and advanced prompt engineering, we empower developers to harness the full potential of AI. In this paper the AI4SWEng project consortium presents a novel and strategic approach proposed by the project consortium that will shape the future of software engineering, driving innovation and paving the way for more agile, intelligent, and sustainable software development.
