I wrote my master's seminar paper on the intersection of team size, happiness, and productivity. One of the things I learned was that 1) happiness and productivity are connected, and 2) smaller teams often are happier, but 3) a large enough team will still out produce even if everyone is miserable.

So quantity wins, /depending on what you're measuring./ If you're measuring quality, it doesn't necessarily.

Not yet. For the work I do (product management, among other things), AI is like a junior person who doesn't learn, and it can't build relationships and trust with people. For professions built on interaction and interpreting human behavior, it doesn't suffice. But, it DOES help me do more better as an IC.

Fascinating!
