METR: "We ran a randomized controlled trial to see how much AI coding tools speed up experienced open-source developers.
The results surprised us: Developers thought they were 20% faster with AI tools, but they were actually 19% slower when they had access to AI than when they didn't."

in reply to Asahi Lina (朝日リナ) // nullptr::live • • •the graph of completion vs time spent is really interesting (cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnai…)
The "AI" tool users show a somewhat steady linear completion over time, whereas the "non-AI" users follow more of an s-curve (I think they're called sigmoids?).
