The concept of “developers 3.0” is emerging, defining the new avant-garde generation of software development professionals. These developers, transcending traditional skills, place generative artificial intelligence at the heart of their approach, thus revolutionizing software design and development paradigms. 

This article explores the methodologies and strategies adopted by these innovators, highlighting notable advantages in terms of productivity and quality. At the same time, we address the challenges associated with this combination of traditional software development practices with the new methodologies centered around generative artificial intelligence, such as ethical issues, security concerns, and the need to maintain a balance with traditional skills. 

Our analysis aims to provide an in-depth perspective on the growing influence of generative AI in the field of software development and its implications for the future of the profession.
