Do you remember the recent post that self-assessing any effect is hard? Here is a comparison between self-assesment and measurements.
Surprisingly, we find that when developers use AI tools, they take 19% longer than without—AI makes them slower.
How reliable is this study? Is it peer-reviewed?
Looks like not officially published yet with a date and journal, aka a pre-print.
Actually LMAO’d lol
You know that feeling when you just knew something for years and it feels so fucking funny and awesome to actually see that reflected in studies? Yeah.
I guess that someday, somebody will find out and report that in nontrivial projects involving more than one person, it does not help to go faster if documentation is skipped altogether. 😂

Who is surprised, though?
Not surprised by this at all, really; but I wonder if the code is of higher quality than without AI?
Not me snarkily sharing this report in work chat. 🤣
I honestly don’t believe it’s snarky. I think a lot of us have had enough of this corporate AI hype bullshit
I’m right there for sure. Sadly, a whole lot of the people I work with are drinking the AI kool-aid hard.
What post are you referring to? Was it in this community? Sounds interesting!
