Do we have any empirical evidence of this? It seems like it'd be an easy experiment to run - task a number of teams with building a particular product, some with Copilot and some without, and see what happens.
I've tried copilot myself, and at times it makes me feel more productive, but I can't tell if it's truly helping me overall.
