Ep. 2: How deeply are engineers adopting AI in larger software teams?
Description
When it comes to all things AI, it seems hype is running faster than reality. If you believe the hype, Google and co. say that 30% or more of their code is AI generated. I would argue, while there may be lots of autocompleted code, in many larger engineering teams, the majority of developers may risk being dragged along or left behind and not on their terms. While I do not call it the death of the programmer, I do think a fundamental paradigm shift is underway.
So I'd like to consider the question of how deeply engineers are actually adopting AI, especially Agentic AI in larger software teams. My gut says that it's a lot less than what tech leaders, including me, are hoping for even while we buy expensive tools.
