I'm in a #github internal group for high-profile FOSS projects (due to @leaflet having a few kilo-stars), and the second most-wanted feature is "plz allow us to disable copilot reviews", with the most-wanted feature being "plz allow us to block issues/PRs made with copilot".

Meanwhile, there's a grand total of zero requests for "plz put copilot in more stuff".

This should be significative of the attitude of veteran coders towards #LLM creep.

@IvanSanchez @leaflet …just wondering, do you see added value for AI in coding? Or not?

@ErikJonker I think it adds -19% of value. With the minus sign.

Study finds AI tools made open source software developers 19 percent slower

Coders spent more time prompting and reviewing AI generations than they saved on coding.

@IvanSanchez ...for the total inexperienced programmer (me) that is surely not true, much better value , also as a tool to explain code for me, it is also useful.

@ErikJonker Talk to @jdelacueva about project Kelsen. This stuff (and its limitations) are not new.
