State of AI 2025: How Developers Are Adopting AI Coding Tools

The first-ever "State of AI 2025" survey, organized by Devographics, gathered insights from over 4,000 developers worldwide to understand the integration of AI tools into coding workflows, highlighting the evolving role of AI in software development. The survey found that AI coding tools like Cursor and v0 are gaining traction, with Cursor being notably favored for its deep integration and autocomplete features in IDEs, while v0 leads in code generation tools, praised for its positive impact on productivity. Despite the increasing adoption, developers remain cautious about AI-generated code quality, emphasizing the need for manual reviews and expert oversight. OpenAI's ChatGPT maintains a dominant presence as a model provider, while GitHub's Copilot remains a leading coding assistant, though Cursor is emerging as a potential alternative. Overall, AI is becoming integral to development processes, although challenges such as code quality and editor preferences persist, indicating that human expertise remains essential in AI-assisted coding.
