We're a Saas company.

It's not just us. My friend at Microsoft says it's the same there, except they have to use copilot.

    Thats the goal? And you guys are like 20% there? Or you are only accepting AI code?

    It's the mandate. We're required to log our "ai savings" time too. If it's not 100% they question it and just edit the numbers anyway.

    My favorite is when I copy paste the ai reviewer comments back to the ai author. I really feel like I'm earning my salary then.

    @wbrianwhite That sounds like fraud to me.

    It's not a number that's reported to the SEC or anything, just some internal nonsense.

    When you work with an ai assistant, you're a centaur. What the bosses want is a reverse centaur. That's where you run N assistants all day long somehow just jumping in when there's an issue or problem. That's why they're saying the savings should be at least 1. It's just nonsense though. I rarely have 6 simultaneous problems to fix.
