    Have we actually seen any evidence that LLM’s increase the pace of coding? Because in most of the reports I’ve seen there is no measurable difference even when users feel like they’re faster

        we present a systematic literature review of 37 peer-reviewed studies published between January 2014 and December 2024

        So they AI summarized other people’s work.

        Most studies are exploratory (64%) and methodologically diverse, but lack longitudinal and team-based evaluations.

        And later acknowledge there are major gaps in methodology. I wouldn’t be linking to this as proof of accelerated dev imho.
