AI已占软件工程顶会过半论文，但研究仍以应用为主
原标题：Are We Just Applying LLMs? What SE Research Studies, Underexplores, and Could Do Next in the LLM Era
AI 摘要
该研究对ICSE、FSE、ASE三大软件工程会议2018至2026年的4790篇研究论文进行普查，发现到2025年AI已出现在过半论文中，AI贡献了93.1%的论文增长。但LLM浪潮主要改变的是研究工具而非问题边界：92.6%的LLM相关论文仍在重访既有软件工程问题，95.7%的AI论文属于应用或评估支持，仅4.3%质疑该范式或探索替代方案。结合244名研究者的调查，作者指出领域围绕AI重组议程的速度快于对重组本身的反思，并建议加强评估保障与SE原生基础研究。

Are We Just Applying LLMs? What SE Research Studies, Underexplores, and Could Do Next in the LLM Era Abstract. Is AI taking over software engineering research? By 2025, AI appeared in more than half of the research-track papers at ICSE, FSE, and ASE. Yet ubiquity alone cannot show whether AI expanded the publication portfolio, displaced other work, or redirected the intellectual agenda. We investigate this shift through a census of 4,790 research papers (three SE conferences; 2018–2026) and free
