Better Software for All: Using LLMs to Improve Software Development Practices

The use of AI is becoming ubiquitous. In software development for example, tasks can be (semi)-automated using AI and software organizations already report benefits from using AI. In our work, we have focused on improving the quality of software by creating fine-tuned models that can aid software practitioners in some key tasks. We will show how we created such models, how they might be a better choice than using out-of-the-shelf LLMs such as ChatGPT, and when we are with their practical application in software organizations.
