Devographics 调查:63% Web 开发者用 AI 生成过半代码,近半数担心失业
Web devs sleeping with the enemy: AI is doing their job and they worry it's after their desk too
Devographics 对 7258 名开发者的第二次 Web Dev AI 调查显示,63% 的开发者用 AI 生成超过一半的代码,27% 用 AI 生成 90% 以上的代码,而 2025 年初多数人用 AI 生成的代码不足 25%。代码生成是最主要的用途,其次是代码审查、调研和调试。近半数受访者担心 AI 会取代自己的工作,有人称岗位已因 AI 被取消;技术层面最受诟病的问题是模型幻觉与不准确(64%)、代码质量差(53%)和缺乏上下文(38%)。模型使用率上 ChatGPT 以 88.4% 居首,Claude 为 82.1%,但付费订阅中 Claude 以 69% 领先。74% 的受访者认为 AI 工具已是工作流不可或缺的部分,64% 觉得效率因此提升。

DevOps
A "state of Web Dev AI" survey shows that nearly half of web developers worry AI will displace their jobs, with one stating "it will be devastating to our sector."
The survey of 7,258 developers is the second on this topic to be conducted by Devographics, home of other surveys including State of JavaScript and State of CSS.
There are big changes since the first in early 2025, when the majority of respondents used AI to create less than 25 percent of their code, whereas today 63 percent of devs use AI to generate more than half their code. Over a quarter of respondents (27 percent) use AI for 90 percent or more of their code.
Code generation is the top AI use case, followed by code review, research, and debugging.
The researchers gathered respondents from those who had completed previous surveys plus others contacted via social media, and state that the topic may have "biased the respondent set towards developers who do have an interest in AI."
Regarding job security, a common view is that although developer skills remain relevant in an AI world, their bosses may be convinced otherwise and let them go.
"AI companies can convince employers that AI can take my job, even if it can’t," said one. Another commented that they "already had to search for a new one, because my job as designer and frontend dev got cancelled for AI."
There is concern over loss of skills as junior hires decrease. "Companies will rather spend the money on AI than train employees," one commented.
The most used model provider is ChatGPT (88.4 percent), just ahead of Anthropic’s Claude (82.1 percent). When it comes to paid subscriptions though, Claude is the winner (69 percent), followed by ChatGPT (49 percent) and Google Gemini (32 percent).
Despite increased usage, the respondents are by no means AI enthusiasts. Use of AI for image generation has fallen since last year, from 38 percent to 37 percent, and some respondents have ethical objections.
"I do not use image generators on principle," said one, and another claimed "AI image generators are built entirely on stolen images."
A general section on AI risks revealed a multitude of concerns: while job displacement topped the list, military use of AI, environmental impact, and AI slop takeover were not far behind. Security issues and rising costs were also areas of unease. The survey limited respondents to three top choices; many comments showed that they would have liked to pick more.
From a technical perspective, the biggest issues cited were hallucination and inaccuracies (64 percent); poor code quality (53 percent) and lack of context (38 percent).
It is a strangely mixed picture, with respondents expressing strong reservations about the overall impact of AI, while at the same time becoming dependent on it. 74 percent agreed AI tools are integral to their workflow, and 64 percent felt they were more productive thanks to AI. 88 percent feel the quality of AI tools has improved significantly year on year.
