Findings from research on GitHub Copilot use in SoftwareDevelopmentAbstract:Artificial Intelligence (AI)\, particularly Generative ArtificialIntelligence (GAI)\, has profoun dly transformed the professionallandscape. These technologies present new opportunities to enhanceproductivity\, potentially offsetting the societal risks they pose.This study aims to assess whether GAI contributes to sati sfaction atwork and whether some of this improvement can be explained bypr oductivity gains\, human flourishing and reduced frustration whenusing GAI . We recruited 218 participants from Orange\, (a French globalcompany)\, a nd conducted weekly questionnaires (over 10-weeks) ofsoftware developers u sing GitHub Copilot. To explore the data\, weemployed the CHAID (Chi-squar e Automatic Interaction Detection) methodand ANOVA analyses to investigate the use of GitHub Copilot by thesoftware developers. Our findings show th at using GitHub Copilotboosted developers' productivity\, their sense of f lourishing at work\,reduced their frustration and increased their satisfac tion.Biography:Ojelanki Ngwenyama is a globally recognized scholar in the fields ofinformation systems and innovation management.
