AI coding tools initially boost developer velocity by automating code generation, but this benefit quickly plateaus. The next bottleneck becomes verification, which can be addressed by mechanizing testing and using AI to generate tests and mocks. Even with these improvements, a significant performance gap persists among developers, suggesting the final constraint lies within the individual developer's trust and operational approach rather than the tooling itself.
