AI Coding Is Massively Overhyped, Report Finds (futurism.com)

"No Duh," say senior developers everywhere.

The article explains that vibe code often is close, but not quite, functional, requiring developers to go in and find where the problems are - resulting in a net slowdown of development rather than productivity gains.

it's slowing you down. The solution to that is to use it in even more places!

Wtf was up with that conclusion?

[–] poopkins@lemmy.world 2 points 5 hours ago

I don't think it's meant to be a conclusion. The article serves as a recap of several reports and studies about the effectivity of LLMs with coding, and the final quote from Bain & Company was a counterpoint to the previous ones asserting that productivity gains are minimal at best, but also that measuring productivity is a grey area.
