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.
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. 😂
How reliable is this study? Is it peer-reviewed?
Looks like not officially published yet with a date and journal, aka a pre-print.
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.

Who is surprised, though?
Not surprised by this at all, really; but I wonder if the code is of higher quality than without AI?
What post are you referring to? Was it in this community? Sounds interesting!
