Welcome to join NextG2Com seminar on the software engineer in the agentic AI era, with Andreas Bexell.

AI-enabled software development tools (AI-devtools) are being industrially adopted under strong expectations of productivity gains, yet developers' experiences of such roll-outs are underexplored. Organizations commit budgets, evaluate staff, and revise practice on a partial picture, since the evidence base is mainly tool evaluations, productivity metrics, and surveys, with few qualitative in-situ accounts of ongoing, coordinated roll-outs. Drawing from two industrial case studies: one interview study and one experience report; we report findings current on use cases, productivity, frustrations, and tool limitations. We explore what bottlenecks arise when the cost of code editing becomes negligible, and how these can be addressed from an academic, and from an industrial point of view.

Andreas Bexell is industrial PhD student in software development and environments at Ericsson and the Department of Computer Science at LU.
