AI-driven software development is no longer a futuristic dream. With GitHub Copilot, more than 1.2 million developers already rely on artificial intelligence to generate code on their behalf, saving them time (and their companies money). But while we tend to focus on Copilot for its impressive, if still nascent, code-generation capabilities, there are even better, more immediately impactful opportunities for AI/large language models (LLM) in software development.

Just ask Jaana Dogan, a distinguished software engineer at GitHub. According to Dogan, “People are too focused on code generation and completely ignore that LLMs are useful for code analysis.” In other words, savvy developers should consider using AI-driven software development less for doing their coding and more for reviewing their coding.
