I think a practical measure still useful right now, which does capture a lot of the "non-performance" capabilities of an employee, is as follows: "Why has my job not been outsourced yet, since it is far cheaper?" Those are probably the same reasons why AI won't take your job this year. Raw coding metrics are a very small part of being a cog in a company, which is not me saying it will never happen. Just me saying that thos focus on coding performance kind of misses the forest for the trees.

The adoption of AI tools for software development will probably not result in sudden layoffs but rather on harder to measure changes, like smaller teams being able to tackle significantly more ambitious projects than before. I suspect that another kind of impact is already happening in organisations where AI adoption is uneven: suddenly some employees appear to be having a lot more leisure time while apparently keeping the same productivity as before.
