Google Says 75% of Fresh Code Now Generated by AI

Bad news for many comsci majors.
AI can be great, but it can also be incredibly stupid.
Google Says 75% of Fresh Code Now Generated by AI
Google announced this week that 75 percent of all new code created within the company is currently being generated by AI systems and subsequently reviewed by human engineers.

guess they need to learn to weld?

Glad I learned to AI and not code then.

I think one day we have to worry.
Today is not that day.
What AI puts out is garbage. It's being pumped by leadership at companies, because they aren't in the details.
It saves time summarizing, it might catch grammar mistakes, and it can tell you where to look to find something.
It's absolute shite at creating. Even web design, it's just not good. You can see when AI has created logos or put together a marketing campaign. It can't tell you accounting standards with any sort of accuracy. It gives a vague idea, but usually it's just flat out wrong.
People should be afraid of AI, because people in leadership at large companies are vastly overestimating its capabilities.

At least AI listened to potato Joe.

There's 2 groups of people.
Right now AI is great for the first group, the group that lived and coded before AI. They know how to do it, they are using AI to do it faster. If it spits out something stupid, they can catch it, they can change it, etc.
The other group is the junior folks, fresh out of college, all they know is AI. They couldn't tell you if it's right or wrong. That's the scary part.

The A.I. I used admitted to hallucinating and making up data after I called it out. It said it wouldn't do it again.. Guess what? It did.

I doubt it.

My old friend who came out of MIT in comsci is highly impressed with the capabilities he has used. Takes a lot of pain out of programming development. He is certainly in first group.

It's the business grads who think they can vibe code everything on their own now who are scary.

What could possibly go wrong?
Posted on 4/25/26 at 10:06 am to Auburn1968
As I a guy who can’t code, and leans bearish on AI, I have made some insane code projects in like 30 mins with conversational back and forth with Claude.
It’s by far the best use case currently for AI and those guys are fricked lol
You need literally zero code knowledge. Your dad could do it

It's a bit of both. The new grads have no domain knowledge and won't know if the code is doing it right or wrong.
Business folks have the domain knowledge but can't look through code effectively. They good ones can however vibe code and end up with accurate results. It might just be completely awful code

You are in for a shock. Some of y'all talk like AI is a finished product and it's just not good.
The rate of improvement is like anything ever seen in human history.
AI improves every second of every day.
We are at the dawn of the most disruptive period in human history. There is nothing even remotely comparable.

AI is taking over at some point and even though i don't like AI and have no idea how to use AI, I really just don't care that much.
Whether there's AI or not, I still only turn a computer on maybe once every 3 months to use Sketchup for designing a woodworking project. But more often than not, I just use a straight edge, engineer pencil and graph paper to layout my build instead of a computer.
You guys that stare at computer screens all day freak me out.

This sums up every person who says all the code is going to be written AI and all software developers will be without a job They have no clue software developers spend the majority of their time doing, and what the actual key parts of their job is.
The future can be scary if people like the OP are put in charge. However they will be al out of a job pretty quick when everything hits the fan.
AI is just a tool that can make professionals more productive.
Hobbyist really have no gauge on the true use case

I thought this was until about a month ago when I started using Claude.
Now I know that's just completely false. It can spit out client ready deliverables with ease. It can create analytical tools that cut down work from hours to minutes.
I'm seeing it in real time. In 6 months it will be exponentially better. And 6 months from then exponentially better.
IMO it's still early enough that most people haven't picked up on it (hence the replies in this thread). It's still possible to be early but that time is running out.

We haven't seen that in a while.
It is getting exponentially more expensive, as they push to monetize
