Full Description
AI-Assisted Programming (O'Reilly, 2024) by Tom Taulli is the go-to guide for software developers navigating the new world of AI pair programming. The book covers the major AI coding tools — GitHub Copilot, ChatGPT, Claude, Amazon CodeWhisperer, and Tabnine — and teaches practical techniques for getting the most out of each: writing effective prompts, using AI for code review, generating test suites, debugging with AI assistance, and avoiding the common failure modes (hallucinated APIs, insecure code, overconfidence). A balanced, hands-on guide that treats AI as a powerful tool rather than magic.
