"Generated and pushed." AI is imperceptibly weaning IT professionals from thinking in code: is this a new skill or a degradation? Experts from EPAM, Levi9, Master of Code, and SPD Technology explain
AI already writes code faster than many Junos. But team leaders are increasingly talking about another problem: developers are starting to think less. dev.ua spoke with engineers from Levi9, SPD Technology, Master of Code, and EPAM about whether AI assistance is really degrading specialists — and what to do about it.

"Does Trump have a red button from AWS?" Maksym Ageev on data "refugees", the trap of free clouds and the end of the era of IT outsourcers
Today, at least 80% of the data of Ukrainian enterprises and government institutions is stored abroad. Due to a full-scale war, data has become as «refugees» as people. But is it safe to keep everything in the hands of three global tech giants? What will happen when free credits from Amazon and Microsoft run out? And will artificial intelligence take away jobs from Ukrainian outsourcers? We talked to Maksym Ageev, co-founder and CEO of De Novo (the first national cloud), about digital sovereignty, the 5-fold growth of the domestic cloud market, investments in AI, and the threat that we will all be replaced by a $20 subscription to ChatGPT.

Junior Python Developer Olga Magerya did the incredible thing — she finally got a job after more than six months of searching. Her post on this occasion gained a crazy reach and number of likes, as for her page, which caused sincere surprise even for the IT-star herself. It would seem that it is a completely banal thing — a person simply found a new job, so what’s the big deal? But given how difficult it is now for a young person with little experience to break through and gain a foothold in IT, this has already become equated to a slight variation of a miracle.

Ukrainian IT companies risk fines of up to €35 million due to AI: who will be affected by the new EU law?
Typical situation: AI sorts resumes, screens out candidates, and suggests who to hire. For business, this is, of course, optimization. But for an EU regulator, it affects access to work. And this is already a risk zone.
So if the system filters candidates, evaluates them, and influences hiring decisions, then it is already subject to strict requirements.
