Stealing the spotlight in the AI world, a US-based applied AI lab focussed on reasoning, Cognition, has developed the world’s first fully ‘autonomous’ AI software engineer, Devin.
“ Devin is a tireless, skilled teammate, equally ready to build alongside you or independently complete tasks for you to review,” says the team at Cognition. Through the development of the fully ‘autonomous’ AI software engineer, the team says they aim to focus on more interesting problems and engineering teams can strive for more ambitious goals.
Devin, the state-of-the-art on the SWE-Bench coding benchmark, has cleared practical engineering interviews from the leading AI companies and has also completed real jobs, mentions Cognition in an official tweet on X (previously Twitter).
Today we’re excited to introduce Devin, the first AI software engineer. Devin is the new state-of-the-art on the SWE-Bench coding benchmark, has successfully passed practical engineering interviews from leading AI companies, and has even completed real jobs on Upwork. Devin is an autonomous agent that solves engineering tasks through the use of its own shell, code editor, and web browser. When evaluated on the SWE-Bench benchmark, which asks an AI to resolve GitHub issues found in real-world open-source projects, Devin correctly resolves 13.86% of the issues unassisted, far exceeding the previous state-of-the-art model performance of 1.96% unassisted and 4.80% assisted. Check out what Devin can do in the thread below.
