And presumably must developers at Microsoft take a similar approach (all the ‘this explains everything’ comments notwithstanding, so it’s ridiculous that they’re even tracking this as a metric. If 30% is AI generated, but the devs had to throw away 90% of it, that doesn’t mean you could get rid of the developer, as they did a huge amount of work just checking the AI and potentially fixing stuff after it.

This is a metric that is misleading and will cause management to make the wrong decisions.
