The advent of low-code platforms has led to speculation that they will change the rules of the game. The option to rely less on programmers led to a software revolution, although issues such as scale management, security, and long-term support remained partially resolved.

The constant growth and innovation in the business world has made many companies still look for highly skilled developers to fully cater and meet the needs of their companies.

Currently, the demand for technology personnel is still greater than the market supply. Although a growth of about 25% is expected in choosing software development as a profession over the next 10 years, this is not enough to keep the demand for personnel in this field greater than the supply.

Globally, 750 million cloud applications are likely to be created by 2025. To achieve this task, the application of low code will increase significantly.

What will happen when generative AI joins forces and connects with low-code platforms?

• Less knowledge and skills will be required for anyone who wants to build automations and applications. No coding knowledge will be needed.
• Productivity will increase and IT backlog will decrease.

For a “citizen developer”, or an employee with no IT knowledge, who wants to create software, low-code platforms can lead to extraordinary results.

A business analyst who knows the problems of the company he works for will be able, through low-code platforms that work through AI, to automate operational processes in ways that were not possible before.

A highly skilled IT employee who knows how to use AI effectively will be able to increase the speed and efficiency of their work.

In conclusion, using low-code AI platforms introduces a way to shorten the normal application development process. They reach the design, development and release phases in a matter of minutes compared to the usual process that takes weeks or months.
