What does it take to embed AI into the heart of a modern engineering culture? As Jonty Bale, Head of Technology at MONY Group, put it: “We want AI to do the laundry, not the art.”

It’s a philosophy focused on automating the mundane and freeing engineers to focus on complex, creative work. But how do you put that into practice? That’s exactly what we set out to explore through our GitHub Copilot workshop in Manchester.

Below, we spotlight key takeaways from the workshop and introduce Mark Dore (Practice Lead - Explore) and Thalita Vergillio (Senior Software Engineer - Explore) from CreateFuture, who brought Copilot to life for MONY Group's engineers.

Click play to see how the first step of that journey unfolded — and why this isn’t just another tech training.
