Has anyone started exploring the incorporation of AI tools and training into their developer communities, particularly in the government space where we tend to be more risk-averse? I’m interested in hearing about the strategies you're using to evaluate these tools and how you distinguish between those offering real value and those that might be overhyped. While tools that simplify code reviews, generate test cases, and ensure automated test coverage are top of mind, I recognize there may be other valuable AI applications. I’d love to hear how others are navigating this space, especially in areas where risk management is a key consideration.
