I feel similarly, but the other guy's point is still good; there is no empirical evidence that AI is really as helpful as we think, and there is empirical evidence that among those who perceive productivity gains, most are wrong and the rest are overestimating the effect.
Our experiences don't agree with the established facts, but the plural of "anecdote" is not "data."
I don't think it is something you can scientifically measure that easily and the studies that have tried are flawed. You can measure factory work, but you can't measure AI and software eng productivity gains or loss objectively.
