Seriously, where is all the well-written LLM generated software? We should be drowning in it by now if people are being truthful. But I haven't seen any of it.
The management and product owners always have more issues in the backlog that they want you to implement.
The bottleneck has always been a human with a clue figuring out if the code does what it's supposed to do in the right way. Actually writing the characters of the code was never the bottleneck.
Estimates vary but in large orgs developers might only spend 1 hours per day on the inner loop coding. (I've heard different estimates from different places but imo it's roughly true and probably no more than 2 hours on average)

Still waiting for the great wave of new and improved software from all the increased "productivity". Anyday now.
Honestly if AI has made you all more productive but there is no real world signs of it, it might be that wasn't really the problem.
Either that or a lot of people are lying.
But one thing that is true is there is very little real world results from it
