In recent years, artificial intelligence (AI) has begun to reshape the software engineering landscape in profound ways. Among the most significant—and sometimes controversial—innovations are AI-powered code generation tools like GitHub Copilot, Amazon CodeWhisperer, and others. These tools promise to boost productivity, lower barriers to entry, and change the way software is designed and written. In this post, we’ll explore what these tools are, how they work, their benefits and challenges, and what the future holds for developers. What is AI-Driven Code Generation? AI-driven code generation refers to the use of machine learning models—typically large language models (LLMs) trained o ...
