    If we’re making up numbers my point is that with 100 employees using AI you get 2x the quality than 50 employees using AI

      I’m making up numbers because I don’t have the actual numbers and 2x is easy for the example, insert whatever numbers you like.

      The issue with that statement is that putting double the employees on a project doesn’t always improve its quality.

      If we go with the numbers we have been going with and a employee with AI is twice as productive then adding AI effectively doubles the time available. This only leads to a quality increase if work was being cut short. If each employee already got the required time necessary to handle a application with full quality then you haven’t increased quality but the capacity. If the now increased capacity is far above normal volume it is a waste to have so much excess capacity.

        Hardly, you need to maintain the same numbers to double check the work of AI. Haven’t improved throughput, but this guarantees better quality

          If we accept that employees spend the same amount of time as without AI but now the error rate is reduced then yes. I don’t think that is the case but I don’t have the numbers so who knows.
