Oh good, a new discussion point that we haven't heard 1000x on here.

Have you heard of that study that shows AI actually makes developers less productive, but they think it makes them more productive??

EDIT: sorry all, I was being sarcastic in the above, which isn't ideal. Just annoyed because that "study" was catnip to people who already hated AI, and they (over-) cite it constantly as "evidence" supporting their preexisting bias against AI.

Have you looked into that study? There's a lot wrong with it, and it's been discussed ad nauseam.

Also, what a great catch 22, where we can't trust our own experiences! In fact, I just did a study and my findings are that everyone would be happier if they each sent me $100. What's crazy is that those who thought it wouldn't make them happier, did in fact end up happier, so ignore those naysayers!
