Everything on AI Productivity Metrics

AI adoption is universal (88.3% usage), but impact is lagging significantly. AI-generated PRs merge at 32.7% within 30 days, less than half the rate of unassisted PRs (84.5%).

Impact: Organizations risk over-investing in AI tools without realizing delivery value. Leaders must shift KPIs from tool usage to production merge rates and feature delivery outcomes.
