Techreviewer.co has published new research titled “How AI Is Reshaping Development Workflows in 2025,” confirming that artificial intelligence has moved from experimental tool to indispensable daily assistant for software teams worldwide. The global study, conducted among senior developers, CTOs, and tech executives from 19 countries, reveals both the dramatic productivity gains and the persistent caution that now define AI-assisted development.
The research builds on Techreviewer’s earlier 2025 study and demonstrates that AI has achieved permanent integration into development practices. Mid-sized companies (57% of respondents) and veterans with over eight years of experience (65%) report the highest adoption rates.
Key productivity insights:
Yet trust remains measured: 62% of developers manually verify every piece of AI-generated code, and 64% spend as much or more time reviewing AI output as writing code from scratch.
Ethical concerns are nearly universal:
Complex, context-heavy tasks remain largely human-led:
Overall satisfaction stands at a strong 78%, positioning AI as a permanent “pair programmer” that amplifies rather than replaces human expertise.
The report concludes with clear recommendations: formalize AI governance policies, embed mandatory verification workflows, and invest in team upskilling to capture maximum value while controlling risk.
