We recently had a client who began using AI-generated code to enhance their website, a task they previously outsourced due to a lack of in-house expertise. Similarly, last month, another client—who had no coding experience—successfully automated their entire reporting and quote sheet process in Excel using AI, saving hours of manual work each week. 💼 It's clear that AI is enabling more and more people to harness coding capabilities.
We’ve noticed the highest productivity gains among our clients who use AI for software development. AI has become remarkably proficient at generating code, identifying bugs, and even offering or implementing fixes across all major coding languages. ⚙️ While there are exceptions, such as insurance companies that still rely on legacy systems and specialized software, where LLMs are not yet properly trained, the overall trend is undeniable—and fascinating. 📈
AI is increasingly putting the power of coding into the hands of everyday people. With just a little learning and practice, individuals with no formal coding background can now write functional code to improve the tools and programs they use daily, unlocking new levels of efficiency and customization. 🛠️
Now, most layoffs at Meta, Google, Microsoft, and other tech giants are more related to a strategic shift towards AI and the streamlining of other processes, and not due to replacing traditional software programming with AI. 🔄 Yet, we see more and more evidence with our clients and among the news that AI is producing more and more code. 🖥️
While AI is empowering everyday people to write code, the current wave of layoffs at companies like Meta, Google, and Microsoft is more related to strategic shifts towards AI and streamlining operations, rather than AI directly replacing traditional software developers. However, we're seeing growing evidence both from our clients and in the news that AI is generating more and more code, hinting at a potential shift in the future of software development. 💡
So, is traditional programming dying? Or will there be a new "empowered AI version" that just does the same, only faster and better? Or will AI never enable ordinary people to become software engineers? 🤔
