No code written by hand!
This is the strict requirement for all students in Stanford University's new computer science course CS 146S "Modern Software Developer". The course was packed as soon as it was first launched in the fall semester this September.
Course developer Mihail Eric set the rule in the first class: the semester's development tasks must primarily rely on AI. When students submit code on Git, they must include conversation records with AI for verification.
Just over two months after the course started, many students have successfully built and released complete full-stack application products.
Now, the course materials have been fully released online!
Here is the instructor of this course:
Mihail Eric: Machine learning engineer, researcher, and educator, currently a lecturer at Stanford University, and "Head of AI" at an AI startup. He was a key member of Amazon Alexa's dialogue system team, with research and engineering experience in natural language processing, dialogue systems, recommendation systems, and computer vision, and has published papers at top AI conferences.
There are also a group of AI heavyweights, including Boris Cherney, creator of Claude Code, Gaspar Garcia, Head of AI Research at Vercel, and Martin Casado, partner at Andreessen Horowitz, among others, who will give guest lectures.
AI Only, the First Course Focused on AI Software Principles and Practice
This course took 10 months to develop and is the first among top universities to focus on AI software principles and practice—hoping to teach students how to use AI coding to become the most efficient software developers.
In the past few years, large language models have brought revolutionary new paradigms to software development. From new integrated development environments (IDEs) and terminals to code review and testing platforms, every stage of the software lifecycle is undergoing innovation. In this course, students will deeply learn the theoretical knowledge behind traditional software engineering challenges and master how to effectively use cutting-edge AI tools to solve these problems. Students will acquire the skills and unique perspectives needed to succeed in the modern AI-driven development era.
The CS 146S course lasts about 10 weeks. Here is a summary of the entire course content:

The accompanying weekly Reading List provides recommended reading, carefully selected from technical blogs and papers written by top industry teams, containing both practical details and methodological insights.
For learners who want to systematically understand "AI software development," even if you don't take the full course, just reading through these materials will help establish a relatively complete framework.
Additionally, before considering learning this course, you should first possess the following abilities:
Need solid programming foundations (equivalent to CS111 level or above).
No prior experience with AI development tools is required. The course will start from the basics and gradually build up to more advanced usage methods.
