We’ve all experienced the joy of solving a jigsaw puzzle or building with Lego blocks. These activities are akin to developing software. While a software is a collection of instructions, data, or programs that enable computers and other devices to perform specific tasks, AI in software development is like a special helper that can make the building process much easier, faster, and remarkably reliable. While AI is no longer a futuristic concept, this blog aims to explain how software is designed, built, and maintained by AI. Also, we will explore the benefits, challenges, and future of AI in software development. AI Triggered Changes in Software Development AI has revolutionized the software industry by simply automating routine tasks. This frees up developers to focus on strategic and creative endeavors. Key functions in software development like code generation, testing, debugging, and even deployment is increasingly handled by AI tools, which analyze code, identify patterns, and suggest optimizations in a fraction of time. Code generation and Completion: AI assists developers in generating code and providing intelligent code completion. The new-age AI tools use natural language processing (NLP) to interpret human language and generate functioning code snippets based on the user’s commands or comments. Tools to Use: GitHub Copilot: Suggests entire...
