I don’t believe your data. Velocity on my team has gone up 7x on my team over the last two months. I’m having a hard time riding product and my business analysts because they’re not coming up with stories fast enough. We’re actually thinking of having an intervention for them because they’re not using LLMs nearly as much as they should be. Designers are still hand placing components in figmas.
100%. My engineering teams velocity (and I mean this in terms of bug free, valuable needle moving features shipped) has gone up immensely. TBF it was already a very talented senior group of people, but having that kind of group embrace the tooling for what it is has made a massive difference.
Your data shows a 20% improvement. That's $20-100k a year depending on how much devs are paid.
You just compared this AI shift to "tractors on farms". Did tractors increase farming output by 20%?
The first tractors in 1911 or whatever probably did. 50 years on and it was many times that.
You don't get paid 20% more for achieving 20% more achievement, that's for sure.
They dont show that. They show 20% more PR. That is not the same as 20% more productivity.

Is this satire?
