"The AI adoption among developers is not as rapid as you expected - the benefits are obvious. Still, the developers do not seem to be taking advantage of it, and the pace of introducing new changes has not increased much over the last few months."

The benefits are so obvious that they preclude any supporting evidence or research. They are more or less axiomatic/dogma.

Wild take - maybe the pace of introducing new changes has not increased _because_ the "benefits" are not so obvious after all.

It's genuinely strange to me that people are acting like anything is possible now, because AI.

We had the internet for decades, with the sum of human knowledge largely available, no one used it.

Now those same uninspired masses are going to use to use the magic knowledge box to produce what they could never bring themselves to learn or research? No.

Just because the LLM can spit out code that looks good to you when you know what to ask for, does not mean that it is doing the same for everyone else.
