That means their metrics suck.
Because I definitely gain a lot as a programmer, even though it doesn’t necessarily translate into measurable profit for my company.
I do spend my brain less on grindy boring shit and more on crafting creative solutions to interesting problems. Which in turn makes me quite happy - a HUGE benefit.
My employer’s paying for my access, and I only find it a bit useful here and there
Maybe my company gets a great discount or something, but if they would pay me the subscription cost to give up Copilot, I wouldn’t miss it

The study measured pull request (PR) cycle time, or the time to merge code into a repository, and PR throughput, the number of pull requests merged. It found no significant improvements for developers using Copilot.

Yeah doesn’t seem like the best measurements.
