A Study on the Application of Artificial Intelligence Governance for Project Task: Sri Lankan Software Industry

Abstract

Artificial intelligence is to make work easier and minimize the time it takes to accomplish a task. This study has investigated the Artificial Intelligence Governance for Project Management Tasks study on software development projects in Sri Lanka. Previous studies have found that there is an introduction of Artificial intelligence governance, Artificial Intelligence governance practices on project management in general, Artificial intelligence governance practices on project management tasks in the software industry, and benefits of Artificial intelligence practices issues and challenges. The application of Artificial intelligence has needed and untapped potential for software development teams and software development organizations. In many developed countries, the application of software projects improved their productivity compared to developing countries. Therefore, there remains some doubt on the readiness of the software project sector towards the application of Artificial intelligence into their project management tasks. The aim of research this research is to find out the Artificial intelligence governance practice on project management tasks in the software industry. This study evaluates and explores the Artificial intelligence governance practices, identifies the degree of Artificial intelligence governance in software-based projects, identifies how Artificial intelligence governance practices support project management tasks, identifies the issues of applying Artificial intelligence in the Sri Lankan software industry, recommend solutions to overcome the problems related to the application of Artificial intelligence governance in software projects and suggest the best Artificial intelligence practices in Software projects tasks. The findings and discussions explore the governance of artificial intelligence tools in the Sri Lankan software industry, and were gathered from 20 respondents from 10 selected companies in Sri Lanka through a semi-structured interview. Findings are about AI tools utilized by Sri Lankan software developers like Jira, Trello, Asana, AZURE Devops, chatbots, virtual assistants, and project insight. Artificial intelligence governance practices support project management tasks such as the influence of Artificial intelligence in the software industry, governance of project tasks, task tracking of projects, ease of project tasks, issue identification, providing better suggestions, and reducing time consumption. Other findings were elaborated on, including the issues in artificial intelligence applications in software project tasks and solutions for AI-related issues. Finally, recommendations for Artificial intelligence practices in software projects were described. The intention has been satisfied with the findings derived from the responses. From this study, the researcher found that the application of Artificial Intelligence and artificial Intelligence governance in project management practices is a crucial factor in the current trends in the software industry. This study shows that it is important to maintain a good balance between artificial intelligence and human interaction
