    AI did better remote work than 4% of humans?

    That's surprisingly high to me. And I work in this field.

    The question isn't if AI can complete the work autonomously by itself.

    The real question is can AI make people more productive.

    METR did a study in July 2025, and found the answer was no, for experienced programmers familiar with a complex code base.

    But what we are seeing in the real world is companies hiring less inexperienced developers. Which strongly suggests that AI can make inexperienced developers more productive.

    And this technology is still rapidly changing.
