AI coding assistants are expected to become widely accepted tools in education and the workplace. Intuit is reassessing how it evaluates potential engineering hires, anticipating more complex coding exercises that incorporate AI tools. Velocity in productivity and enabling quicker onboarding are notable benefits of these tools. While junior developers embrace them, veteran workers express skepticism about their impact on employment. The emphasis in the developer workforce will shift towards the ability to exercise good judgment rather than simply memorizing technical specifications.
"AI coding tools like Github Copilot, Cursor, and Windsurf have rapidly grown in popularity, especially among more junior software developers and engineers."
"One expected change is that the coding exercises will be more complicated, requiring that candidates solve bigger problems, with the expectation that those candidates will use AI tools to complete some of those tasks."
