Learning from you about AI | Blog | web.dev

Over the last few months, we’ve spoken with web practitioners to understand the landscape and how you think about AI. Of course, we can’t talk to everyone about everything. We had just a small set of conversations with web developers, including web Google Developer Experts, focused on how developers are using AI to deliver user-facing features and to increase productivity in their daily workflow.
We believe that what we learned may be broadly applicable to other folks on the web. And, we thought the community may be interested in hearing what we’ve learned.
If you’re on the fence about whether generative AI can be useful for you as a developer, even maybe skeptical, or perhaps you’re using it, this will help you get a sense of what other developers are doing.
My advice from quite a bit of experience working with these technologies for code generation.
The difference between a free version of a model like GPT3.5 and a paid version like GPT4 can be enormous.
It is a tool to learn to use–it will be frustrating, it will make errors, it will possibly do stupidly insecure things.
That’s where your knowledge and expertise come in.
Many teams will do code reviews before commits–I’d recommend code reviews of the code that’s generated by these tools.
