Trust can be more essential than love in relationships and, without it, relationships often falter. The same dynamic will play out in our new and exciting relationship with our current obsession, artificial intelligence (AI). Infatuation is currently high given the possibilities. But the adoption of AI across the board will depend heavily on whether we can trust it.

Coding assistants that use generative AI (GenAI) are game changers for software development and the biggest step change the industry has experienced in decades. In a recent IDC survey, 56% of developers said they were experimenting with AI coding assistants.

It’s always a struggle to test microservices well. When you talk about testing, the fuzzy definition of testing phases comes up right away. Is a test involving all the services an integration test? Or an end-to-end test? Is a test of meeting API spec a contract test? Or a unit test?

If you are a big fan of open source AI but don’t have the computing capacity to run AI models locally, Google has your back (but at a cost). The company is bringing Nvidia’s L4 GPUs to its cloud service. L4 GPUs are lightweight versions of the H100 GPUs, which trained Meta’s Llama 3.1 and OpenAI’s GPT-4o model. Developers can log into Google’s , load Ollama in a container, fire up open source LLMs such as Google’s Gemma 2 or Meta’s Llama 3.1, point to L4 GPUs, and get down to inferencing.

The arguments over how to open source AI and large language models (LLM) continue. In the latest development, the Linux Foundation has adopted the Open Model Initiative (OMI) and its efforts to keep once-open source LLMs open. If that sounds familiar, it should. We’ve seen many open source programs lose their open source status when their corporate overlords decide it’s more profitable to use a proprietary model. The OMI founders, CivitAI, ComfyOrg and Invoke, faced a similar situation.

Anyone could be forgiven for thinking that generative AI is all about the model. The value of the most well-known large language model developer, OpenAI, has soared along with media focus. Seven of the Forbes 2024 AI 50 focus on model development. Even the term, “LLM,” which was geek speak just a few years ago, is now T-shirt fodder.

The battle over data is only just beginning, and CEOs need to be especially proactive about protecting this valuable corporate asset in the age of AI. Generative AI platforms like ChatGPT, Midjourney and others have proven how valuable the AI market is, and they all require overwhelming volumes of data to feed their underlying models.

The role of the developer is more challenging today than it was before the pandemic, and it's exponentially more difficult than at the start of the mobile era 10-plus years ago. Why? The world’s seemingly insatiable appetite for software.

The great computer scientist Niklaus Wirth has died, but his work will endure forever. I come not to mourn Wirth, a computer science titan who passed away on Jan. 1 at 89, but to praise him. While the public won’t recognize his name, his contributions to the world of programming are unparalleled, leaving an indelible mark that shaped the trajectory of software development. I cannot claim to have really met him, but I attended several lectures by him in the ’80s. He was, in a word, impressive.
