![]() Technologists are willing to concede that AI isn’t a proven technology as of today but seem to be very positive about the direction it’s going. On the contrary, the related field of machine learning is among the best-valued technologies on both axes. This can be interpreted as a sign that developers think those technologies will be helpful in the future, but they are not quite there yet.Ī similar kind of reasoning may be applied to AI-assisted technologies, which are receiving lot of attention recently. Other technologies, like quantum computing and nanotechnologies, score the lowest on the experimental-proven scale but are above the negative-positive threshold as to their positive impact. Indeed, in spite of all the media hype about blockchain and low-code/no-code, technologists do not seem to judge them well either on the negative-positive scale or on the experimental-proven scale. The survey results may appear surprising, says Stack Overflow data analyst Erin Yepis, if you compare them to the current media buzz. The "Positive-Proven" quadrant included thus those technologies that according to surveyed developers bring a proven positive impact, while the "Negative-Experimental" quadrant includes more experimental technologies that have yet to prove their impact. The survey results are resumed in a four quadrant diagram along two axes: from "negative" to "positive" impact and from "emergent" to "proven". Speaking about the value of this survey, Joy Liuzzo, vice president of product marketing at Stack Overflow, stresses the importance of looking at data about the value distinct technologies bring in context and not in isolation.Ī lot of that has been looked at in a silo, so there's no reference point to kind of how folks are thinking about it in context of other technologies. Stack Overflow has published its 2023 Emergent Tech Sentiment Survey, aiming to gauge how developers perceive utility and impact of a range of "buzz-worthy" technologies like quantum computing, nanotechnology, blockchain, and others, as well as other more established ones including cloud computing, machine learning, robotics, and more.
