INSIGHT

Next-Gen AI Transforms Coding

  • The next wave of AI coding assistants will prototype, test, and debug code, not just autocomplete it.
  • Developers will shift to managing and reviewing AI-generated code rather than writing it from scratch.

  • Code correctness has two levels: syntax correctness and functional correctness.
  • The new AI assistants aim to ensure code not only runs, but does what the developer intends.

  • Better models mimic the process coders follow, not just the final code.
