Title: How Many Programmers Are Now Using AI Agents and Other Tools in Their Work?

Content: AI-powered programming is becoming increasingly popular, and I'm curious how many people have already started using AI agents in their actual work (usage level: purely for assistance, completely relay on agent). Among those already using them, how many have company support, and how many are using them at their own expense?

It seems that a significant number of developers may be using AI agents at their own expense, as companies tend to provide access primarily when building projects around it — often with the goal of reducing personnel costs and time. This is, of course, an observation and may vary across different organizations and industries.
