75.3%

of respondents say they would still ask another person for help in a future with advanced AI when they do not trust AI's answers

Reader Note:: Figure base is 29,163 respondents. The question is hypothetical: "In the future, if AI can do most coding tasks, in which situations would you still want to ask another person for help? Select all that apply." The 75.3% is the share selecting "When I don’t trust AI’s answers." Because this is a future-looking scenario, it measures stated intention rather than observed behaviour. The report does not say when the survey ran.
Evidence:: Stated intention
Vendor interest:: Moderate — This comes from a company with a commercial interest in this market, so it is not a neutral source.
Sample:: Survey respondents on Stack Overflow; most charts show roughly 26,000 to 34,000 responses, with smaller subsets for AI agent users and specific follow-up questions.
