97% using tools that generate 41% more bugs. Fuck all of this. What a fucking clown car of an industry

@baldur I am looking at this right now and it's... well, a mess of a survey.
First, who puts their methodology in ultra-widescreen slides? And these questions are SUPER vague and all perception based. Like, yes, I've used an AI tool. Sometimes it is very useful (usually with something really simple). Sometimes it's completely fucking wrong. But it's all perception and a bunch of noise. UGH.

for those following this thread, I ended up writing it all up:
GitHub's survey about the benefits of AI coding assistants doesn't say much, is embarrassingly bad, and makes many claims that its data simply does not support.
Lies, Damn Lies, And Surveys About AI
GitHub's AI Survey is embarrassingly bad and doesn't support its conclusions.
