I just published the results for this year's State of Devs developer survey, which covers topics such as career, health, worldview, and even hobbies.

Some interesting stats:

• The most common emotions respondents cited when asked about their feelings towards the tech industry was "exhaustion", followed by "disillusionment". "Curiosity" came in third, and is strongly correlated with being pro-AI overall.
• Speaking of AI, 49% of respondents now generate over 75% of their code using AI.
• Despite that, developers were evenly split on the anti-AI/pro-AI spectrum, meaning you can use AI while remaining critical.
• The most worrying AI-related risk was environmental impact.
• Respondents also worry about AI's impact on developers, especially cognitive impacts and skill atrophy.
