> The data on AI's differential impact is now overwhelming. Faros AI's Productivity Paradox Report (10,000+ developers, 1,255 teams) found that high-AI-adoption teams completed 21% more tasks and merged 98% more pull requests — but PR review time increased 91%, creating a critical bottleneck at human approval. At the organizational level, any correlation between AI adoption and performance metrics evaporated. This is Amdahl's Law applied to software: a system moves only as fast as its slowest link.

We've definitely faced the review bottleneck on the open-source project that I maintain. ( github.com/robotmcp/ros-mcp-server )
