AI Optimism and Pessimism in 2024 25

Описание: I sat down to think what am I optimistic about, and what am I pessimistic about with the Software Development industry's use of AI.

I see a lot of positive benefits for AI use in the Software Development Process.

There are many risks involved with adding AI into products and we should rightly be concerned about those and try to identify how to test AI enabled applications properly.

Many of the statements concerning how Software Testing has to evolve concern me. e.g. more technical skills, more focus on risk, point out flaws in process, identify architecture risk. I thought Software Testing already did this. So perhaps one good thing from AI is an evaluation of what part Software Testing plays in the Development Process and what are the fundamental skills and knowledge we need in order to Test software effectively.
