Just to make the point. I agree there’s adoption but value is still being figured out.

See the MIT Nanda study, and the other one from a few weeks back on the perceived vs actual productivity increases.

There is value, but so far nowhere near as much as the people pushing AI would like you to believe has actually been delivered

The Nanda study is junk. Yes, I'm slower as a developer when I use AI. That's because I'm doing things I simply couldn't do before.

I agree with you on the quality of the study. My point was that value shouldn’t be considered a given, we’re still figuring it out.

In my team I see examples like yours, but I also see engineers having to clean up slop when one of them got over their skis.

My _belief_ is that it’s a net positive, but we’re far from taking that as a hand wave fact. And it certainly ain’t the 5-10x people are shouting across the board.
