Interesting Talk: "Does AI Actually Boost Developer Productivity? (100k Devs Study)"

I've just watched this great talk by Yegor Denisov-Blanch

• Does AI Actually Boost Developer Productivity? (100k Devs Study)

What I like about this one is that it's not from an AI company. At least there's less conflict of interest to begin with.

Interesting things:

• The sample is quite large and they are companies with large codebases, not startups making MVPs.
• They take into account the delivered functionality, not just more commits.
• They take into account rework.
• They take into account the complexity of the tasks.
• They take into account the popularity of the language you use.
• They take into account whether you're working in a legacy code base or not.

The results are very interesting.
