This article presents findings from a survey of over 900 software engineers regarding their use of AI tools. Key findings include the dominance of Claude Code, the mainstream adoption of AI in software engineering (95% weekly usage), the increasing use of AI agents (especially among staff+ engineers), and the influence of company size on tool choice. The survey also reveals which tools engineers love, with Claude Code being particularly favored, and provides demographic information about the respondents. A longer, 35-page report with additional details is available for full subscribers.
Sarvam AI is releasing Sarvam 30B and Sarvam 105B as open-source models, trained from scratch on large-scale, high-quality datasets. These models demonstrate strong reasoning, programming, and agentic capabilities, with optimizations for efficient deployment across various hardware. Sarvam 30B powers Samvaad, while Sarvam 105B powers Indus. The release includes details on the model architecture, training process, benchmark results, and inference optimizations. The models are available on AI Kosh and Hugging Face, and the article details their performance across benchmarks and in real-world applications like webpage generation, JEE problem solving, and conversational agents.
Qwen3-Coder-Next is an 80-billion-parameter language model that activates only 3 billion parameters during inference, achieving strong coding capabilities through agentic training with verifiable task synthesis and reinforcement learning. It is an open-weight model specialized for coding agents, and both base and instruction-tuned versions are released to support research and real-world coding agent development.
