They may spend 20% less time writing code but 20% more time explaining to the AI what they want and fixing the output. People are not good at basic math or time accounting, even programmers.

i wouldn't draw broad conclusions on this based on one study. especially since it's going against what many people self-report. studies are often flawed.

i mean at this point i don't really know what to say to comments like these basically calling me a liar lol. i log increases in sustained lines outputted and removed, files touched, features pushed per day. you can argue the level of increase, but it's definitely not 20% slower shrugs.

and this is exactly what i'm talking about. in the end who gives a shit about some study that may or may not apply to me as long its actually working.

people literally frothing at the mouth to tell people who find it useful that they are utterly wrong or delusional. if you don't like it then just go about your day, thx.
