In a four-day mixed-methods field study of 22 SAP developers, single Copilot interaction modes (in-code or chat) improve efficiency and lower workload while combining them does not, and AI use raises cognitive load on development tasks while productivity tracks output quality.
Incidental prompt cues induce large, systematic shifts in the algorithm families chosen by LLMs during code generation across thousands of controlled trials.
Survey of 162 vibe coders finds perceptions of AI code quality similar across experience levels but motivations, interaction styles, and quality assurance practices diverge, revealing a perception-action gap.
Babbling Suppression stops LLM code generation upon test passage to reduce token output and energy consumption by up to 65% across Python and Java benchmarks.
REAP automatically filters real developer-AI sessions into an executable coding benchmark, Harvest, that separates five frontier models' solve rates from 42.9% to 58.2%.
Longitudinal surveys show AI coding assistants reduce time on code writing but increase supervisory verification tasks, with stable productivity perceptions yet rising reports of worsened developer experience.
A multisite biometric study finds lower cognitive engagement under AI assistance via EEG and blink rate, with physiological-performance links present only in the non-AI condition.
Among novice programmers using AI code generators, trust did not predict compliance with suggestions, while performance correlated with both compliance and increased subsequent trust.
The IIP model is a cybernetic framework representing humans and AI as coupled control loops whose efficacy depends on input adequacy, reference consonance, and output operativity to guide interface design.
A six-month qualitative study of a mixed-ability nonprofit finds that conflicting access needs in communication act as a generative process revealing power structures and enabling accountability and repair rather than serving as technical problems to eliminate.
A qualitative study of mixed-ability teams identifies four types of interrelated failures and workarounds in information representation use, influenced by stigmas and social dynamics.
