FAQ

Does measuring LLM‑augmented acceptance rate really predict developer speed?
Yes. In the Google Maps routing pilot, a 0.12 defect‑per‑KLOC improvement correlated with a 5 % velocity gain. The acceptance‑rate metric outperformed raw commit counts in three separate debriefs.

Can I use raw commit counts if I add a weighting factor for LLM suggestions?
No. Weighting raw commits still masks LLM‑generated drafts. The hiring panels at Amazon and Stripe rejected candidates who insisted on raw numbers, even with weights.

What’s the minimum latency SLA I should quote in an interview?
200 ms is the benchmark used in Meta’s L5 loop. Anything above that without a composite KPI will be flagged as unrealistic.
