> I've watched teams go from deploying weekly to deploying 5x/day after adopting AI coding tools. Their velocity metrics looked incredible. Their incident rate also tripled. Not because the code was worse per se, but because they were changing more things faster than their observability and testing could keep up with.
But this an improvement! The features/incident rate improves as you have more incidents but fewer in relation to the increased velocity. This may or may not be a valid tradeoff depending on the impact of incidents.
At least in my org we have an understanding that the product side will have to change drastically to accommodate the different rates of code development.
