DevOps, Monday, September 29th, 2025
Google this week published the results of its annual DevOps Research and Assessment (DORA) survey that finds 90% of the IT professionals surveyed are now using artificial intelligence (AI) tools, with 80% reporting they are more productive as a result.
The survey of nearly 5,000 IT professionals also finds that respondents now have a median average of 16.22 months of experience using AI tools, with respondents spending a median of two hours of their most recent workday interacting with AI, representing about one-quarter of an eight-hour workday.
Among AI users, a full 60% of AI users said they employ it about half the time or more when encountering a problem or completing a task. Only 7% report 'always' using AI when faced with a problem to solve or a task to complete, while 39% said only sometimes do they seek AI help.
