Agreed although the differences between the effort and reasoning is massive. I generally ship 40 hours in three with AI. I could not figure out why my delivery was behind until I started going through the logs. The thinking was extensive, the effort was beyond the original request by a magnitude of 50x
- discreteevent 25d agoHow do you even know that it's consistently 40 hours in 3? What kind of developer ever had that kind of estimation accuracy (unless it's really repetitive) or even focuses on productivity rather than the problem like that? This sounds more like factory work than design or development. I really don't get it.
- pizzafeelsright 25d agoWe are in new territory and not everyone gets it. I am not a developer although I have written production code but that's not what I am talking about. I know for a fact that I can do a task in a week. It may take 12 or 40 hours but it'll be done in a week. Now with AI? I can get that task done in a day. Anywhere from 3-12 hours.

- pizzafeelsright 25d agoAgreed and management is becoming aware.
