Glad to see more data!
It’s interesting they showed the biggest gains for junior developers. The other study showing productivity losses for experienced developers. That suggests these tools are a lot more helpful for junior developers compared to senior developers at the moment.
From my experience, a senior dev who knows how to work these tools will be better than both. We need data on how long, and how much effort into developing the skill, working with AI a developer has put in.
Theore you use it, the more you get a feel for when and when not to use it
