The data suggests gen AI boosts software productivity - for these developers
Briefly

Our analysis reveals a 26% increase in the number of completed tasks among developers using the AI tool.
Copilot significantly raises task completion for more recent hires and those in more junior positions, but not for developers with longer tenure and in more senior positions.
Short-tenure developers increased their output by 27% to 39% while long-tenure developers had more marginal gains of 8% to 13%.
AI is more of a help to developers newer to the job than their senior counterparts, according to a study by researchers from MIT, Microsoft, Princeton University, and the University of Pennsylvania.
