Perforce: Software development copilots are a shift-up
"His team is hearing from users that copilot-type tools deliver developer productivity gains of between 50-70%. Developers might be writing code quickly, but the quality and visibility gaps widen across teams and siloes grow. Trust, transparency and integration lag behind. Add AI into the mix... and an already broken process gets bigger, or, at the very least, fails to create the hoped-for value and alignment with business goals."
"So, given the headspace and time that this liberates, what if, in addition to individual impact, development teams also switched their focus more to how AI, particularly to enable DevOps or DevOps workflows, could positively impact the rest of the organisation and drive that elusive value? After all, the point of DevOps itself was always to eliminate siloes and remove barriers. This is why our recommendation is to start building a shift-up mentality."
Copilot and AI assistant tools report developer productivity gains of roughly 50–70%. Faster code output can increase throughput while widening quality and visibility gaps across teams. Siloes, reduced trust, poor transparency, and lagging integrations can undermine enterprise benefits. Introducing AI into broken processes can magnify problems or fail to align work with business goals. Developers are shifting from implementers to orchestrators who review and manage much larger outputs. Team leaders may supervise throughput far beyond previous human-only capacity. Organizations should focus AI on enabling DevOps workflows, eliminating siloes, and adopting a shift-up mentality to capture value.
