In two years: Software developers use generative AI 25%-new study revealed assessment of the IT experts

Generative Künstliche Intelligenz (KI) wird laut einer Studie des Capgemini Research Institute in zwei Jahren voraussichtlich mehr als 25 Prozent der Arbeit von Software-Entwicklern in den Bereichen Software-Design, -Entwicklung und -Testen unterstützen. Die große Mehrheit der IT-Experten erwartet zudem, dass sich ihre Rolle durch generative KI merklich verändert. Die Integration generativer KI in die Software-Entwicklung steht zwar noch am Anfang, aber Unternehmen, die bereits Gen-AI-Initiativen umsetzen, profitieren von Vorteilen wie Innovationssupport und verbesserter Softwarequalität. Die Studie zeigt außerdem, dass generative KI die Zusammenarbeit zwischen Software-Entwicklern und anderen Unternehmensbereichen erleichtert. Die Nutzung generativer KI führt zu höherer Zufriedenheit und Motivation der Software-Ingenieure. Insgesamt ist eine konsistente Strategie zur Integration von Gen AI empfehlenswert, um den vollen Mehrwert zu erschließen.
According to a study by the Capgemini Research Institute, generative artificial intelligence (AI) will probably support more than 25 percent of the work of software developers in the areas of software design, development and tests in two years. The vast majority of IT experts also expect their role to change noticeably through generative AI. The integration of generative AI into software development is still at the beginning, but companies that have already implemented gene AI initiatives benefit from advantages such as innovation support and improved software quality.

In two years, 85 percent of software developers will use generative AI-compared to almost 50 percent today

A new study by the Capgemini Research Institute shows that the work of software developers will change significantly over the next two years. Generative artificial intelligence (generative AI / gen AI) is expected to support more than 25 percent of their activities in the field of software design, development and tests. This development will result in the role of software developers will change noticeably by using tools and solutions with gene AI.

According to the study, more than three quarters of software developers are convinced that generative AI has the potential to facilitate cooperation with teams from non-technical corporate areas. This enables more effective cooperation and increases the productivity of software developers.

The integration of generative AI in software development is still at the beginning. The scaling is still pending at nine out of ten companies. Nevertheless, companies that have already started genetic initiatives benefit from numerous advantages. This includes support for innovation, an improvement in software quality and an increase in productivity. In the case of certain tasks, a time saved of up to 35 percent was found.

The organizations surveyed stated that they want to use the time gained by generative AI, especially for future-oriented activities such as the development of new software features and further training. German companies want to use the time primarily for complex, value-founding activities and to optimize their technology competencies.

Matthias Sondermann, CTO of the technology area Cloud & Custom Applications at Capgemini in Germany, emphasizes that generative AI is a powerful assistance technology for software engineers. However, he also points out that a holistic software engineering approach is required to open up full added value.

generative AI also has an impact on the cooperation between software developers and other corporate areas. By better communication and explaining functions in natural language, AI facilitates cooperation and strengthens personnel satisfaction in the IT industry.

However, the study also shows that many software experts use non-authorized AI tools to support their work, which can lead to functional, safety-related and legal risks. It is therefore important that companies pursue a consistent strategy for the integration of Gen AI and ensure adequate governance and control.

The results of the study are based on surveys by managers and software experts in different countries and industries. The survey period stretched over April 2024.

Capgemini is a global business and technology transformation partner for organizations. The company supports its customers in their digital transformation and develops comprehensive services and solutions in the areas of AI, cloud, data and more.

The study by the Capgemini Research Institute shows that generative AI will have a major impact on the work of software developers. It is important that companies recognize this development and prepare for successful integration in order to maintain the full benefit of gene AI.
