Findings from research on GitHub Copilot use in SoftwareDevelopmentAbstract:Artificial Intelligence (AI), particularly Generative ArtificialIntelligence (GAI), has profoundly 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 satisfaction atwork and whether some of this improvement can be explained byproductivity gains, human flourishing and reduced frustration whenusing GAI. We recruited 218 participants from Orange, (a French globalcompany), and conducted weekly questionnaires (over 10-weeks) ofsoftware developers using GitHub Copilot. To explore the data, weemployed the CHAID (Chi-square Automatic Interaction Detection) methodand ANOVA analyses to investigate the use of GitHub Copilot by thesoftware developers. Our findings show that using GitHub Copilotboosted developers' productivity, their sense of flourishing at work,reduced their frustration and increased their satisfaction.Biography:Ojelanki Ngwenyama is a globally recognized scholar in the fields ofinformation systems and innovation management.
