Survey shows 54% of organizations use AI across most of the SDLC, but quality concerns and governance gaps persist.
A Futurum Group survey of 839 IT decision-makers reveals that 54% work for organizations using AI across more than half their software development lifecycle, with 40% reporting AI generates most production code.
While DevOps spending is expected to grow 14% in 2027 and reach $226 billion by 2030, significant challenges emerge: 75% encountered production issues linked to AI, yet only 43% mandate human code review.
The article emphasizes that the volume of code being generated by AI coding tools is starting to overwhelm DevOps pipelines, highlighting the critical need for better code review processes before deployment.
