    All the studies I’ve found so far seem to disagree, so why should we believe you?

    https://www.anthropic.com/research/AI-assistance-coding-skills (2026 study)

    We found that using AI assistance led to a statistically significant decrease in mastery.

    Using AI sped up the task slightly, but this didn’t reach the threshold of statistical significance.

    But those claims appear to be massively overblown, as The Register reports, with researchers finding that productivity gains are modest at best — and at worst, that AI can actually slow down human developers.

      That’s what I’m saying. Ai does not help with speed. Takes potentially even longer. It helps with concept and design quality and completeness. For coding its just fancy auto complete. Think how LLMs can be used to improve the process instead of replacing yourself. Apply your skill with a lever instead.
