Do you make more money now that you use AI for everything?

Everybody is saying people who don't use AI will be left behind, but does using AI translate to more income?

Using something like claude code has costs, does the benefit of using it offset the costs?

I am genuinely curious, are there financial benefits of using AI?

If you are hired for a position that requires you to use AI, does it benefit your company financially to output 10kLOC a day or whatever you use it for.



There is a reason no-one will answer that now and this is why there is more hype than substance.

The true answer will be revealed in 10 years time.


Yeah, probably. I ask again in a year or two when AI usage is more clearly represented on company expense and earnings reports.
