If cloud coding agents close the speed gap with local machines, developers may have more reason to run AI coding tools remotely rather than on their own hardware. Teams that rely on these tools would be the first to feel any shift in workflow or cost. The full post would be needed to judge what it actually measures.

Teams using AI at work may want to compare this against current productivity and review workflows.
