Martin Fowler

Martin Fowler's curated links and commentary covering AI adoption trends in software development. Key data points from Laura Tacho's DX research show 92.6% of devs use AI assistants, saving ~4 hours/week, with AI writing 27% of code. Fowler highlights that AI acts as an amplifier of existing organizational practices—for better or worse. Also covered: Thoughtworks CTO Rachel Laycock's reflections on the future of software engineering (cognitive load, staff engineer roles, agent topologies, self-healing systems); Simon Willison's new Agentic Engineering Patterns series distinguishing professional agentic engineering from vibe coding, including Red/Green TDD as a pattern for coding agents; and security considerations around fine-scoped agents following the Principle of Least Privilege.
