Book Description

Generative AI is transforming software development. Stay on the cutting edge with this guide to AI pair programming! Learn how to make the most of modern tools like ChatGPT and GitHub Copilot to improve your coding. Automate refactoring, debugging, and other tedious tasks, and use techniques such as prompt engineering and retrieval-augmented generation to get the code you need. Follow practical examples that show how you can program faster, more efficiently, and with fewer errors with the help of AI.

What You'll Learn


    • Optimize your daily development tasks with AI
    • Work with tools like GitHub Copilot, ChatGPT, and OpenHands to generate code, refactor programs, and debug scripts
    • Explore AI options for database design, unit testing, documentation, administration, and more


    Hype versus Reality
    Learn from expert developers to understand the possibilities (and pitfalls) of AI tools. With the help of practical code examples, see how to use AI helpers correctly to their full potential.

    Assistants for All Tasks
    This guide gives you an up-to-date overview of all aspects of AI-assisted coding: GitHub Copilot autocompletions, project bootstrapping with OpenHands, debugging and refactoring, application development, and more.

    In the Cloud or Local?
    Use OpenAI’s API to integrate AI models directly into your own scripts and automations—or use local large language models (LLMs) to work independently of cloud services.
