A survey of 457 SE researchers finds widespread GenAI use concentrated in writing and ideation, with productivity gains but persistent concerns over accuracy, bias, and the need for clearer governance rules.
LLMs propose volatile performance improvements on real-world Java tasks that lag human developers on average, showing algorithmic benchmarks overestimate capabilities.
Transportability methods can transport causal effects from experimental samples to broader target populations in software engineering by leveraging observational data to improve external validity.
A composable DSL for describing sampling workflows on code repositories enables explicit specification and statistical reasoning about the generalizability of empirical software engineering findings.
Longitudinal surveys show AI coding assistants reduce time on code writing but increase supervisory verification tasks, with stable productivity perceptions yet rising reports of worsened developer experience.
A multi-case study plus survey produces seven actionable recommendations for efficient and responsible LLM use in industrial software engineering.
