There can’t be a double blind study because the people using the copilot will know they’re using it.

Fair enough then give them problems to solve and measure their output. This feels like “90% of dentists claim crest improves your dental health”

I’ll take an independent study into consideration but today I find it more of a novelty

I agree the survey study is nothing close to being definitive. And it does smack it marketing. Still, my own experience suggests that these tools will be transformative. At the same time, I’ve gotten lost down an AI rabbit hole where it would have been more efficient for me to just do it myself. On balance though, my assessment is that these are already very helpful tools, and they’ll only get better.
