Artificial intelligence is transforming software development, altering workflows and employee roles significantly. Adam Kentosh from Digital.ai emphasizes the importance of careful AI integration to enhance productivity without compromising quality. The shift towards generative AI is evident, as companies seek to leverage its capabilities for faster delivery and improved efficiency.
Kentosh outlines three approaches for companies to adopt AI: developing their own models, utilizing existing data with machine learning, or implementing generative AI for productivity gains. He highlights the necessity of security frameworks like SAST and DAST to mitigate risks associated with AI-generated code. As developers transition into roles as prompt engineers, the focus on explainability and governance becomes crucial for building trust in AI systems.
• Generative AI boosts software development but requires careful integration.
• Developers will increasingly become prompt engineers in the AI era.
Generative AI refers to algorithms that can create new content, enhancing productivity in software development.
Shift Left Testing emphasizes early testing in the development process to improve quality and efficiency.
SAST stands for Static Application Security Testing, a method to identify vulnerabilities in code before deployment.
DAST stands for Dynamic Application Security Testing, which tests running applications for security vulnerabilities.
