🤖 Devs now use AI daily — but most don’t fully trust it

AI isn’t just a sidekick for developers anymore — it’s becoming part of their daily workflow. But here’s the twist: trust is lagging far behind adoption.

Google Cloud’s latest DORA report shows that 90% of developers now use AI assistants. That’s nearly everyone in the field.

📊 The Big Picture

  • 90% of developers now use AI assistants (Google DORA report).

  • Nearly 5,000 tech pros surveyed worldwide.

  • Devs spend ~2 hours a day with AI tools.

🤔 The Trust Gap

  • 30% of developers trust AI outputs “a little” or not at all.

  • Yet, they keep using it daily.

  • Why? Because efficiency outweighs doubt.

🚀 The Upside

  • 80% report higher productivity

  • 59% say code quality improved

  • Google rolled out the DORA AI Capabilities Model → 7 practices for maximizing AI benefits.

💡 Why It Matters

AI has gone from experimental add-oncore infrastructure.
But trust issues aren’t a bug — they’re the feature.
Devs rely on AI for speed while keeping human judgment as the final check.

💼 AI vs Humans: 44 Jobs, 1 Benchmark

OpenAI just put today’s smartest AI models to the test. The question?
Can they actually work at the level of seasoned professionals?

To find out, researchers created GDPval — a benchmark that pits AI against human experts across 44 occupations. The competition included GPT-5, Claude Opus 4.1, Gemini 2.5, Grok 4.

📊 How It Worked

  • 🔹 1,320 tasks designed by professionals (avg. 14 years’ experience)

  • 🔹 9 economic sectors covered — from healthcare 🏥 to finance 💰

🏆 The Results

  • 🥇 Claude Opus 4.1: Highest score (47.6% win rate), excelled in visual presentations

  • ⚙️ GPT-5: Best in technical accuracy, big leap from GPT-4o

  • 📈 AI progress tripled in just 15 months

💡 Why It Matters
AI isn’t fully replacing professionals (yet).
But benchmarks like this show how fast parity is coming — and the next leap could be just months away.

🔥 Quick Take
AI is no longer just a tool — it’s stepping into real jobs.
The only question: How long before it’s better than us?

  • Spotify is tightening rules on AI-generated music, requiring artists to label AI contributions using the music data standard (DDEX) and rolling out a new spam filter. Fake uploads and unauthorized AI voice clones will be blocked before tracks go live. “Profile mismatches”, where songs appear under the wrong artist, are also being targeted.

  • Google DeepMind has launched two new models in its Gemini Robotics family. Gemini Robotics-ER 1.5 works as the planner, building multi-step strategies with strong reasoning, vision, and tool use (even pulling info from Google Search when needed). Gemini Robotics 1.5 then carries out those plans, turning instructions and visual input into motor commands so robots can actually perform the tasks.
