The impact of ai on developer productivity: Evidence from github copilot
arXiv preprint arXiv:2302.06590, 2023•arxiv.org
Generative AI tools hold promise to increase human productivity. This paper presents results
from a controlled experiment with GitHub Copilot, an AI pair programmer. Recruited software
developers were asked to implement an HTTP server in JavaScript as quickly as possible.
The treatment group, with access to the AI pair programmer, completed the task 55.8% faster
than the control group. Observed heterogenous effects show promise for AI pair
programmers to help people transition into software development careers.
