This session explores how GitHub Copilot can be used to modernize and optimize SAS programming workflows in AML and banking analytics. Attendees will learn how to use AI-assisted code generation to improve PROC SQL queries, automate documentation, and streamline data analysis. The session includes a deep dive into prompt engineering, style guide creation, and real-world applications using the AML transaction monitoring dataset. Along with additional use cases such as macro generation, code conversion within SAS or code conversion to open-source tools, and various uses cases that Copilot can be used on.
What if the fastest way to improve your SAS workflow isn’t replacing your tools—but pairing them with Copilot in smarter ways? In this practical session, Chris Gregg walks through real-world examples of using Copilot alongside SAS to modernize legacy code, troubleshoot errors faster, and even build complex regulatory outputs with far less manual effort. The talk goes beyond hype, showing where Copilot genuinely saves time—and where human judgment still matters. If you want concrete ideas for making SAS development more efficient without losing control, this is definitely one to watch.
