[Podcast] Let’s talk about generative AI

Generative AI, exemplified by models like ChatGPT, is poised to significantly transform software development by enhancing coding and problem-solving processes. A recent Twitter Space discussion hosted by Tabnine, featuring CTO Eran Yahav and moderated by Lisa Zigel, explored the current and potential future roles of generative AI, including its impacts on the software development lifecycle (SDLC) and its growing importance in code review and testing. Eran Yahav, an expert in program synthesis and machine learning in code, discussed the profound effects of AI on automating and streamlining software development. Tabnine, an AI-powered coding assistant, supports over a million developers globally by boosting engineering velocity, code quality, and developer satisfaction through AI tools tailored to individual teams. Unlike generic coding assistants, Tabnine offers privacy and control, allowing customization of deployment environments and ensuring enterprise-grade security and compliance by being trained solely on open-source code with permissive licenses. Tabnine enhances the coding workflow with accurate, personalized code completions, and its Tabnine Chat feature in IDEs helps developers interact in natural language for various coding tasks, including code generation, unit test creation, code explanation, and documentation.
