In a recent discussion from Emerj Artificial Intelligence Research, Akash Gupta (GreyOrange) and Tsavo Knott (Pieces for Developers) explored how generative AI tools are transforming software development. According to a study by MIT Sloan & Microsoft Research, coding copilots powered by AI can boost developer productivity by 55.8%! This shift towards AI tools allows developers to concentrate on more complex tasks. Key takeaways: ?? Optimizing Onboarding: Akash shared that onboarding new hires takes 3-4 months due to complex software, hardware, and industry contexts. ???? Building Diverse Teams: Both Akash & Tsavo emphasized the importance of diverse perspectives and a growth mindset beyond just technical skills. ?? Balancing AI and Design: Developers are now focusing more on creating detailed designs and research, as AI tools tackle routine coding tasks. What changes have you seen in your development practices? ?? Explore the shifts in developer roles and how companies can adapt to utilize AI’s full potential: https://lnkd.in/g68fY4mD
