Evolution of Developer Skills: from Technical Expertise to Hybrid Visionary
Introduction
In just a few months, artificial intelligence (AI) has established itself in developers’ daily lives and revolutionized how they work. Generative AI tools like ChatGPT or GitHub Copilot have become true code partners, capable of automating or accelerating a large part of technical tasks.
The numbers speak for themselves: document writing is 40% faster thanks to AI (Harvard Business Review), and in code, AI assistants reduce development time by 56% on average (MIT/Microsoft/GitHub).
In my own daily work, this transformation has happened at breakneck speed: in just a few months, AI has freed me up to think about product, strategy and community, rather than getting bogged down in repetitive tasks. It’s a bit like going from a sorcerer’s apprentice executing rituals to the letter, to a true magician capable of understanding the magic behind the formula.
