About this episode

Sacha Greif discusses insights from a survey of over 7,000 web developers regarding their views on AI.

Sacha Greif, creator of the State of Web Dev AI survey, joins the podcast to walk through what over 7,000 web developers actually reported about their AI tool usage, code quality concerns, and growing worries about AI financial costs. Only 29% of developers generate a quarter or less of their code with AI, and the survey reveals surprisingly balanced views on LLM hallucinations, developer job security, and even AI's environmental footprint. A grounded, data-driven counterweight to the AI hype cycle.
