The impact of artificial intelligence on software development? Still unclear

▤ Summary

"So far our survey evidence doesnt support this," the reports authors, Derek DeBellis and Nathen Harvey, both with Google, state. In their research, DeBellis and Harvey isolated a segment of "elite" professionals who are on top of their game. These professionals only require lead times of one day to make changes in applications, versus a week to a month at low-preforming shops. While AI may help IT professionals in the future, there are best practices that the elite group is pursuing that are making a difference today. The survey helps shed light on whats important for top-performing developers -- and AI is still more of a shiny object than a differentiator.
