A new Coddy Developer Survey found that four in five developers, 80%, say their use of AI has felt more like a dependence than an advantage.

    Yeah 100%, an agent failing at what I want it to do is extremely rare now, like, a 1% chance at most, and it’s usually easily fixed. I think most people with this experience aren’t developers at all in a professional sense and therefore don’t have the oversight to write a prompt properly with well defined goals and scope, or they’re using the free version or something.

    The study methodology is also extremely dubious to boot. This is just getting clicks due to pure anti-ai sentiment. I have my own issues with AI too, but this is just classic internet clickbait.
