In a groundbreaking forecast that has sent ripples through the tech industry, GitHub’s CEO Thomas Dohmke has declared that India is on the verge of surpassing the United States to become the largest software developer community in the world by 2027. This bold prediction is fueled by India’s rapid adoption of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and its pivotal role in building the digital public infrastructure (DPI) of the future.
At the recent ‘ET World Leaders Forum’ in New Delhi, Dohmke emphasized that AI is not just a technological trend but a transformative force that is opening a new chapter of opportunities for India. He highlighted that software developers in India are embracing AI faster than any other segment of the global workforce. This swift adoption is expected to boost global GDP by over $1.5 trillion by 2030, with India’s developers leading the charge.
GitHub’s latest study revealed that nearly 30% of code suggestions from GitHub Copilot—a tool leveraging AI to assist developers—are accepted, resulting in significant productivity gains. By 2030, with the projected number of 45 million professional developers, these AI-driven productivity enhancements could effectively add the capacity of 15 million more developers worldwide.
India’s booming developer community is already making significant strides, with over one million developers activating GitHub Copilot and more than 20,000 organizations adopting AI coding tools. With over 100 million users on GitHub, including developers from 90 of the Fortune 100 companies, India’s role in the global software landscape is set to reach unprecedented heights.
As AI continues to reshape the tech industry, India’s developers are poised to be at the forefront of this revolution, potentially redefining the global power dynamics in software development. The world is watching as India gears up to become the ultimate software superpower, driven by the relentless force of AI.
