Quick Poll: Are Chatbots Helping Develop Software?

April 24, 2023

Chatbots and AI/ML software is flooding not only the general markets, but software-development arenas as well.

Check out other Microwaves & RF Quick Polls.

Lots of chatbots and artificial-intelligence/machine-learning (AI/ML)-based tools are coming on the market in general as well as in the software-development field. These days, you become an alpha tester or possible beta tester for the platforms that are often initially rolled out for free before turning into money-making projects.

Chatbots are being tapped to perform a range of chores related to software development, from creating programs from scratch given a description of the problem, to doing static analysis on an existing program. The search aspects are utilized to find related programs or routines.

I earned a Bachelor of Electrical Engineering at the Georgia Institute of Technology and a Masters in Computer Science from Rutgers University. I still do a bit of programming using everything from C and C++ to Rust and Ada/SPARK. I do a bit of PHP programming for Drupal websites. I have posted a few Drupal modules.

I still get a hand on software and electronic hardware. Some of this can be found on our Kit Close-Up video series. You can also see me on many of our TechXchange Talk videos. I am interested in a range of projects from robotics to artificial intelligence.
