In this chapter, of the latest State of the Developer Nation (Q3 2023) we present our analysis from a snapshot of the data
collected to offer insight into how developers perceive the future of generative AI; specifically how it relates to their role as a developer. Here are the key insights:
• The vast majority of developers are quite optimistic about how generative AI will affect their work: 80% agree or strongly agree that generative AI will increase their potential and productivity.
• There’s also a considerable portion of the developer community (61%) who harbour some reservations, as they agree or strongly agree that generative AI raises many ethical concerns.
• C-level technical executives (CIOs and CTOs) and IT managers are the most likely to report that generative AI will render their job obsolete, whereas front-line programmers and architects are the least likely.
• 80% of developers with less than a year of coding experience report that generative AI will allow them to use tools that they previously could not. This drops to 60% among seasoned developers with more than 16 years of experience under their belt.
