Wow these are extremely interesting results, specially this part:
> This gap between perception and reality is striking: developers expected AI to speed them up by 24%, and even after experiencing the slowdown, they still believed AI had sped them up by 20%.
I wonder what could explain such large difference between estimation/experience vs reality, any ideas?
Maybe our brains are measuring mental effort and distorting our experience of time?
