The Framework JetBrains Uses to Predict the AI Market Landscape

When the AI market changes overnight, how can engineering leaders plan their roadmaps to see past the short-term hype? In this session, JetBrains Head of Product Research Stanislav Tikhomirov sits down with Nadia Lokot to introduce the AIDE (Artificial Intelligent Development Environments) Framework. This is the structured model JetBrains uses internally to evaluate AI capabilities and predict market evolution. They map out the power dynamics of delegation, moving from traditional editor-bound intelligent completion – code-validate-fix – to autonomous agentic workflows – plan-execute-review. Stanislav also shares where the market stands today and where JetBrains believes it’s headed next. In this video, we explore: - How AI development tools have evolved from simple full-line code completion to modern cloud agents, and what forces are driving this market shift. - How different levels of delegation define the contract and operation model between a developer and an AI agent. - Where popular tools like ChatGPT and specialized agents like Claude Code sit on the global AIDEs map today. - What the development organization of the future might look like, and how AI can play the role of "intelligence resource”. - How to build or adapt this framework for your own organization to optimize developer cognitive load, redesign workflows, and identify the managerial and architectural skills your team will need next. 00:00 - Introduction 01:13 - Current State of AI Coding 06:18 - Evolution of AI Coding Tools 07:46 - Introducing AIDEs Framework 08:34 - Core Concepts and Assumptions 14:47 - Understanding Framework Dimensions 22:36 - Future of Software Creation 27:58 - Preparing for Future Changes
