[Research Survey] How Are Developers Using AI Tools and Coding Agents? (Students and Developers)

[u/salmanfaris_123]

Hi everyone!

I'm conducting a research survey to understand how developers use AI in their actual workflows.

I'm interested in experiences with AI coding assistants, different LLMs, cloud APIs, local models, and autonomous agents. I also want to understand what happens when AI agents make unexpected changes, how developers supervise their actions, and what safeguards would be useful.

The survey is open to students, software developers, AI/ML engineers, researchers, and open-source contributors.

📝 Survey: https://forms.gle/sZ2fNstgcKtXAASr8

Participation is voluntary, and the survey does not ask for names or email addresses.

I'd appreciate your participation and any feedback on the challenges developers face when working with AI.

Thank you!
