The idea of bots writing code isn’t a fantasy anymore, it’s happening in real life now. The release of ChatGPT has introduced new possibilities, a world in which app developers will rely on ChatGPT for performing essential research, building logic, and identifying the issues with their code.
Developing a mobile application is a challenging task that is split around multiple phases including research and planning, UX/UI conceptualization, prototype development, Q/A, and release. Due to its powerful, versatile features, ChatGPT can be a mobile app development service provider’s assistant in all phases.
Goldman Sachs, an American multinational investment bank and financial services company, is already testing generative AI tools to write code, according to a top executive at the bank.
Marco Argenti, who joined Goldman as a partner from Amazo, says “It is currently in a “proof of concept” stage and not yet ready for production.”
“Developers are already using some of the assisted coding technology,” Argenti told CNBC’s Arjun Kharpal at the Goldman Sachs technology symposium.
ChatGPT: Assistant for Custom Mobile App Development
A custom mobile app development project demands more time and effort due to the uniqueness and complexity of the functions. Milestones have to be achieved in a timely manner while catering to last-moment-change requests and the addition of new features.
An intelligent bot like ChatGPT not only cuts down the research and planning time but can also create a detailed roadmap for the smooth and seamless execution of the project.
Moving to the coding part, which is the most important phase of mobile app development, navigating challenges like code bugs and code optimization is always a big task.
In some cases, developers can write up to 40% of code using AI. In the same way, quality assurance professionals can check the code for any bugs or come up with a neat and concise version of the same code with the help of ChatGPT.
This is a win-win situation for all the stakeholders of the project. Developers can pace up their work while the owner of the app can get a high-performance mobile app in a shorter time.
