What do you mean placebo effect? They thought things were created with AI while they actually weren’t?
- gazebo2 4mo agoProbably meaning C-Suite thought productivity was up because of AI, either because A) metrics showed high AI usage or more commits/LOC or B) we're mandating AI usage, why wouldn't it increase?
- steveBK123 4mo agoFor a lot of C-suite there has been more of a fast-follow approach to AI. CEO hears 3rd hand what competitors are doing, tells his CTO to "do AI" and "hire a head of AI". So a lot of motion (do AI) was created without a destination (product outcome). The motion was what was being measured (we are doing AI).
