What is AI-assisted development?
AI-assisted development is software development where engineers use AI tools to help write, review, test and document code. The engineers still decide what to build, review what the AI produces and remain responsible for the result.
What AI speeds up
- Repetitive code and first drafts of new features.
- Prototypes that let you see an idea working early.
- Tests, refactoring and documentation.
- Finding the cause of a bug in unfamiliar code.
What still needs people
- Understanding the requirements and the business behind them.
- Designing the system and choosing the trade-offs.
- Reviewing AI-written code before it ships.
- Being accountable for quality, security and deadlines.
What to ask a team that uses AI
- Which AI tools do you use, and through what kind of account?
- Can the provider train its models on my code or data?
- Do passwords, access keys or customer data ever go into an AI tool?
- Who reviews AI-written code before delivery?
