Generative artificial intelligence (genAI) tools to assist in the creation, testing and operation of software are expected to be adopted by half of all enterprise software engineers by 2027, according to a new study by Gartner Research.
Today, only about 5% of enterprise software engineers use genAI tools to assist in coding. That number is likely to quickly grow because software demand exceeds most organizations’ capacity, existing developers are maxed out, they’re unable to build features fast enough, and they’re less satisfied in their work, the study found.
