The landscape of software development is evolving rapidly with the increasing adoption of AI technologies like ChatGPT and GitHub Copilot among developers, presenting an opportunity for platforms like Daytona to redefine the development experience. The JetBrains Developer Survey reveals that 77% of developers already use ChatGPT, while 46% leverage GitHub Copilot to augment their workflows, with 60% believing AI will radically transform the industry job market. Dayton is positioned to optimize inner-loop developer productivity by providing a secure, scalable and self-managed development environment management platform. The survey also exposes trends in languages and frameworks, where Python remains dominant but Rust continues its ascent, while modern web development use cases dwindle. Additionally, Daytona enables teams to reduce context switching and stay focused on building by minimizing the toil of spinning up environments, promoting developer well-being and providing consistent environments for remote work, and meeting the need for AI assistance through intelligent integrations.
