The overwhelming majority of tech industry workers use artificial intelligence on the job for tasks like writing and modifying code, a new Google study has found. The report, coming from Google’s DORA research division and based on 5,000 responses from technology professionals around the world, found that 90% of respondents are using AI in their job, up 14% from last year. The findings come as the rise of AI has prompted a mix of concern, hype and promise around how the technology could impact jobs and the economy. Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei made headlines in May when he said AI could lead to a spike in unemployment, a sentiment that other tech industry professionals have since tamped down. But some data does suggest it’s getting harder for entry-level workers to find jobs in software engineering, a trend that comes amid a wave of layoffs in the tech industry. Google is one of many companies looking to capitalize on the shift to AI-assisted software development; it offers tools that range from free to $45 per month for helping with code generation and deploying agents that can handle software development tasks.
