>> frees up resources for the remaining engineers to work on something more interesting.
Or forces them to waste all their time babysitting the "AI" workers that can't do basic tasks.
- tombert 2y agoIf that's the case, I don't think we have anything to worry about anyway. If productivity actually drops then I suspect that this program will be sunsetted.
- throwaway48476 2y agoHave you found the fabled solution for measuring programmer productivity?
- tombert 2y agoNo, but I do feel like if every programmer were to complain that all they do is babysit AI code, and if we see that most of their commits are fixing mistakes of AI code (e.g. wrapping stuff with null checks or something), eventually management would listen.
- sundaeofshock 2y agoManagement will not listen as long as the company’s future success is at least partially based on the success of their AI developer initiative.
