SpiceWorks published an article featuring speakers from Microsoft, JetBrains, and DataArt at the last DataArt’s IT NonStop Conference, where they discussed the challenges and opportunities AI presents.

“At this point, LLMs do not produce reliable code. Generating any part of a system, compiling it, and automatically deploying it can potentially lead to dangerous side effects.

“AI Assistants can help developers in many ways. A junior developer might consider an approach they have not considered. At the same time, a senior developer might leverage AI to fill in boilerplate code to reduce repeatable tasks. On top of that, these tools can help operations teams, too.”
“According to Dmitry Baykov, technical director AI/ML at DataArt, we will get immense value as soon as we automate the bigger chunks of work, not only in one file generation but also in one service generation or product generation, like AI generating a website or a landing page. I think that’s what we will see soon – AI building a project or even a product.”
