The first AI software engineer in the world, according to US-based applied AI lab Cognition, has been introduced. Leading AI businesses have conducted actual engineering interviews with the AI software engineer, Devin, according to the agent’s creators. It has also finished actual projects that were listed on the US-based freelance website Upwork, claims Cognition.
Cognition introduces first fully autonomous AI software engineer
“Devin is a tireless, skilled teammate, equally ready to build alongside you or independently complete tasks for you to review. With Devin, engineers can focus on more interesting problems, and engineering teams can strive for more ambitious goals,” Cognition wrote in official blog post.
This first AI software engineer has certain sophisticated software development skills, such as the ability to code, debug, solve problems, and more. Devin continuously learns from problems, enhances its performance, and adjusts to meet new ones using machine learning techniques.
Moreover, Devin, AI software engineer is capable of creating, deploying, and training its own AI models in addition to building and optimizing them.
Devin is capable of organizing and carrying out difficult engineering jobs that call for thousands of choices. The progress that Cognition has made in long-term planning and reasoning makes this feasible. Devin may self-learn over time, correct errors, and remember essential information at each stage.
Additionally, the creators have given the AI software engineer the capacity to actively engage with the user. It can take comments, provides real-time progress reports, and guides the user through different choices as per requirement.
