Gen AI gives software developers surge in productivity - but it's not for everyone

Generative AI tools like GitHub Copilot boost developer productivity, enabling them to focus on more complex tasks and assume leadership roles.

There's a Problem WIth AI Programming Assistants: They're Inserting Far More Errors Into Code

Generative AI tools like GitHub Copilot do not significantly improve productivity and can actually increase errors in coding.

Study Shows AI Coding Assistant Improves Developer Productivity

GitHub Copilot significantly boosts developer productivity, especially for less experienced programmers, showing a 26% increase in task completion.

AI Is Rewiring Coders' Brains. Yours May Be Next

Generative AI is already being used by computer programmers in the form of tools like GitHub's Copilot.
Almost half of the code produced by users of Copilot is AI-generated, but human oversight is still necessary.

New Relic's AI-driven platform simplifies observability by enabling non-experts to gain insights, thereby democratizing its use across organizations.

OpenAI dropped from AI copyright lawsuit

OpenAI avoided copyright lawsuit from open source developers over AI training code for Microsoft's Copilot.
The lawsuit claims AI systems trained on public GitHub repositories violated open-source licenses by not attributing code creators.
The focus was on attribution and licensing terms, not straightforward copyright infringement, under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act.
US District Judge dismissed the copyright claims as developers couldn't prove AI could replicate code perfectly.
