You may be confusing articulate and confident with useful and accurate.
They really aren't. AI commit messages are much more thorough and correct than some of the stuff I've seen humans do over the years e.g. Fix, Fixup, Fixed some Stuff, Should work now, Definitely should work now etc etc etc.
"Since April, monthly commits have grown from 1.4 billion to 2.9 billion. " Wow, that is some incredible growth in a really short time.

Same. Helping family out when I generally was too tired to do it earlier. They're all very happy too
Are they happy about the circumstances of AI too? Higher resource consumption and the set back in CO2 reduction?

LOL, this kind of things will happen when projects like Bun ( https://github.com/oven-sh/bun ) are running on auto. :)
This will result in pretty low quality software. I've had opus 5 along with its AI code reviewer agree to do some pretty stupid shit.

> bar of corporate code quality It's Microsoft, if they can't afford to do comprehensive unit testing, what hope do the rest of us have?
> It's Microsoft That means nothing, especially with all the layoffs. One thing that I learned over the years is never mystify "code quality". Maybe you can say a certain team/project produces high quality code, and maybe Google's overall quality is better than my company's (considering their bar of hiring), but you want to avoid generalizing that, especially at scale. The average software engineer at a large company…
MS has layers, there are A-teams, B-teams, and so-on. Simultaneously they are dropping both world class work and, to your point, a statistically much larger pool of just pretty good code.
A lot of that work is perfunctory and somewhat bloated/weakened by the scale of publishing and their internal tech-political requirements. Components for component I’ve seen in-house replacements for many MS projects from mid-tier devs that are better, smaller, and less brittle over time.
I’d compare it to baking: a home cook or tiny bakery have the advantages of time and focus, perpetual consistency at scale is a whole different baking challenge, one that doesn’t necessarily yield better individual loaves. It doesn’t mean WonderBread is bad at bread, just that they’re optimized for something other than maximal loaf quality.

So much more stuff and growing- what it is actually useful for ? Are we getting actually more done than with previous volumes or is it just all wasted energy?

I mean, isn't that the dream? I don't know if that's sarcasm or not. I know it doesn't work , but that's the future we've been promised, right?
Why it doesn't work? It is working for me. It is working for bun. It is working for others who actually embraces it and puts in the work to get it working.
