This CTO Says 93% of Developers Use AI, but Productivity Is Still 10%
Summary
Laura Tacho’s Pragmatic Summit research finds that 93% of developers use AI coding assistants and about 26.9% of production code is AI-authored, yet overall productivity remains around 10%. The report emphasizes that AI success depends on organizational change and developer experience (DevEx), with onboarding speeding up and AI transforming workflows rather than just individual tasks. It cites Cisco as an example of AI-enabled migrations and notes that adoption alone often falls short without addressing systemic frictions.
