Coders are refusing to work without AI — and that could come back to bite them
In 2026, you cannot pry AI coding tools out of developers’ vise grip, researchers have discovered. But while AI is undoubtedly helping coders produce code faster, it may not be producing better code, other researchers warn. And that could cause problems down the road for them. Specifically, in February 2026, respected AI research lab METRpublished a surprising revelation:Most developers won’t work, even on a limited number of tasks, without AI anymore. METR had hoped to provide an update to somegroundbreaking research publisheda few months earlier, in 2025, on AI coding productivity. In it, researchers measured how much time open source developers took to do tasks by hand versus with AI. While developers in that study reported that AI was making them more productive, they were shocked to learn it actually slowed them down. Sure, it generated code faster, but then they spent extra time finding and fixing errors, steering the AI and waiting on it to complete tasks. When METR set out to repeat the experiment to measure advances in AI and coder proficiency, they couldn’t. Devs weren’t willing to participate “because they do not wish to work without AI” even just for the study, the researchers confessed. Instead, METRpublished a surveyin May that allowed technical employees to self-report their AI productivity gains. Not surprisingly, they perceived that AI made them twice as valuable to their organizations. But recent headlines aboutthe wild expense of so-called tokenmaxxing, coupled with a smattering of recent research, make such self-perceptions dubious. Tokenmaxxing, or using the number of tokens a person uses as a proxy for productivity with AI, has been the trend of 2026 so far. And it may already be over. Amazon shut down its internal token-tracking leaderboard called Kirorank after employees were gaming it by using AI agents excessively, and running up costs, theFinancial Times reportedthis week. The employees proved that AI use does not automatically translate to increased productivity. Uber blew through its 2026 AI budget within the first four months of the year,The Informationreported. COO Andrew Macdonald recently said on a podcast that suchspending hadn’t led to a measurable increasein projects or productivity. AI-generated code also doesn’t necessarily reduce ongoing code maintenance needs and may even increase it, programmer and author James Shore elegantly argued ina blog postthat went viral on Hacker News. “You write code twice as quick now? Better hope you’ve halved your maintenance costs,” he wrote. “Otherwise, you’re screwed. You’re trading a temporary speed boost for permanent indenture.” There’s other evidence that AI can increase code maintenance woes. Aviral tweetfrom Aiswarya Sankar, founder and CEO of reliability engineering agent startup Entelligence AI, proclaims that companies are spending 44% of their tokens on bug fixes that their AI generated. Meanwhile, code-reviewing tool companyCodeRabbitsays it analyzed open source pull requests and found that AI produced 1.7x more problems than human code. Those are, admittedly, self-serving stats from those trying to sell AI code reviewing tools. Yet independent researchers have also found such issues. Researchers from the respected Singapore Management Universitypublished a report in Aprilwarning that “AI-generated code can introduce long-term maintenance costs into real software projects.” Given that programmers love their AI assistants, what’s the solution? Well, those who want to sell you AI coding agents say devs can just use AI coding agents to do the bone-wearying tasks of fixing code as fast as AI spits it out. That’s what Cognition founder and CEO Scott Wu —the maker of AI coding agent Devin —suggests. But even he admits that, while Devin can work independently, he’d currently rate its skill between a junior and mid-level programmer, depending on the task. This is not a hand-it-off and forget it solution. The SMU researchers suggest a more human approach. Programmers should know what tasks AI does and doesn’t do well as deeply as they know their favorite coding languages. They need strong quality assurance systems designed for AI and they are stuck with carefully reviewing the AI’s work as if it were a junior dev. Meanwhile, the researchers say (and Wu agrees), humans should still be doing the big-picture work like software architecture and security design.

Does your CEO have AI psychosis? Aaron Levie thinks most of them do.
The people deciding that AI can replace your job are also the ones least likely to understand what your job truly involves, according to Box founder Aaron Levie, who pointed to this as an example of “AI psychosis.” Indeed,ClickUp recently cut 22% of its workforcefor AI agents, tech layoffs in 2026 are already nearly matching all of 2025, andDuckDuckGo installs are climbingfrom users who want Google to stop forcing AI into search and just give them links. On this episode of TechCrunch’sEquitypodcast, Kirsten Korosec, Anthony Ha, and Sean O’Kane dig into what happens when the AI-pilled and the AI-skeptical are both right at the same time, plus three deals worth knowing about and Waymo’s new robotaxi hitting the road.

After Nvidia’s $20B not-acqui-hire, AI chip startup Groq reportedly raising $650M
Groqis looking to raise $650 million in new funding from existing investors, sources tellAxios, as it leans into its inference neocloud business that relies on its homegrown AI chip and systems. In December, Groq struck one of those not-an-acquisition agreements with Nvidia fora reported $20 billion, which involved the departure of some top-level senior Groq employees to the chip giant and the licensing of Groq’s hardware technology to Nvidia. That deal was good news for the startup’s investors, who got paid out in cash with what would have been Nvidia’s largest purchase, if the deal was a full-acquisition, Axios reports. Now these investors have been asked to pony up and back the company’s plans to grow its inference cloud business, which lets developers and enterprises host their inference-hungry apps. Inference is the processing that happens after an AI prompt and is currently a much bigger need in the AI world than model training. The new direction is led right now by Groq’s interim CEO and CFO, Adam Winter and Matt Eng, respectively. In some ways, the $650 million in funding is guaranteed. Axios reports that Groq’s backers Disruptive and Infinitium have agreed to fill the round should other existing investors not want their pro-rata shares.
