I went all in on AI and burned out. It was exhausting, and something had to change. - Business Insider

Developers are embracing AI coding, but many feel exhausted, obsolete, and unable to trust it. The people building the AI boom are running on empty. According to Stack Overflow's 2026 Developer Survey, released Tuesday, nearly half of 30,903 developers surveyed in 169 countries reported being complacent in their current jobs, while a third were unhappy, and just over 22% were happy. Among the complacent group, burnout or tech fatigue was the leading reason, cited by 21% of respondents. The findings come amid an environment where software engineers' jobs are changing at breakneck speed. AI coding has taken over a greater share of their daily work — reducing some developers to button-pushers and human meat proxies, contributing to an identity crisis among some engineers, and fueling "off-the-charts" anxiety among tech workers. The malaise comes alongside a major shift in how software gets made. Stack Overflow found that almost two-thirds of respondents use AI coding assistants or agents, while 62% use general-purpose AI chat tools. Among daily AI users, 31% said they use them for four hours or more.
