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.

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.
