How Enterprise CIOs Can Scale AI Coding Without Losing Control
CIO, Wednesday, January 28th, 2026
AI coding can make teams dramatically faster - but only if CIOs put smart guardrails in place so speed doesn't turn into risk.
That's the bottom line of many discussions around AI in 2025, whether among politicians, academics or business leaders. It's also the question we're asking on the front lines, where AI is being woven into real-world software development workflows with the new wave of AI coding assistants.
Many of the world's largest software companies expect 30 percent or more of their code to be AI-generated in the future using these tools. They could, in theory, add $3 trillion to global GDP if they could double developer productivity. Speak to developers and they'll sing the praises of these tools and, much like with prominent generative AI models, it's now hard to remember what work was like without them.
