Do You Still Own the Code Your AI Wrote? I Built CodeOwnership to Measure It
How-To How to actually use this
What changed: A new tool called CodeOwnership helps measure how much ownership a developer feels over AI-generated code by assessing confidence and bug-finding ability.
How to use it:
- Use the CodeOwnership tool to rate your confidence in AI-generated code on a scale of 1 to 5.
- Attempt to find a known or planted bug in the code within a set time limit (e.g., 8 minutes).
- Record whether you successfully located the bug and note the time taken.
- Compare your confidence rating with your actual bug-finding performance to assess ownership.
- Reflect on discrepancies between high confidence and poor performance to gauge over-reliance on AI.
Good for: developers evaluating their reliance on AI-generated code.
I rated my confidence 4 out of 5, then couldn’t find a planted bug in 8 minutes. Here is the tool, the run, and its limits. The post Do You Still Own the Code Your AI Wrote? I Built CodeOwnership to Measure It appeared first on Towards Data Science .
