At the company's re:Invent keynote on Tuesday, AWS CEO Matt Garman introduced a tool he said would give developers more time to focus on creativity: Amazon Q Developer, an AI agent that AWS is rolling out in two tiers with free and paid options.
AWS said developers spend an average of 'just one hour per day' on actual coding. The rest is eaten up by 'tedious, undifferentiated tasks,' AWS said.
Some have argued that AI will remove some of the tedium from tasks like creating documentation and generating basic code. That could be great for coders' productivity - and perhaps for their enjoyment of the jobs - yet it could also mean employers need fewer of them.
