The era of AI-powered development is here. Gartner predicts that by 2028, 90% of enterprise software engineers will use AI code assistants, a massive leap from less than 14% in early 2024.

GitHub takes a different approach: by embedding GitHub Copilot into everyday developer workflows, enabling advanced capabilities like Agent Mode, and centralizing development on GitHub Enterprise Cloud, GitHub helps teams move faster, stay secure, and scale AI adoption with confidence.

The Gartner recognition, we feel, reflects the strength of this strategy.
