AI for Developers

The age of Artificial Intelligence has arrived and has taken the entire tech world by storm, helping small businesses to make the most of the AI to make them strive and expand their operations and launch their products successfully, and other small operating businesses struggling to streamline their operations and services. With all the wonders and beauty of AI making huge strides and impact, the developers at large are also at risk that the jobs they have might get replaced by AI, as recently announced by IBM they intend to replace around 2500 to 4000 of their workforce with AI.

That is not true, because if that was the case then the CEO would not had to reiterate and renounce his plans and expectations later on as it was not feasible or possible. That is a story for another day, with the innovation and introduction of the AI developers and programmers can also make their lives way easier with the help of some of the latest and new platforms to make their developing journey and conquest easier.

Let our exploration begin
