Is 80% of Code Written by AI Now? What It Means for Engineers
Jul 27, 2026
When a company says most of its production code is model written, the number sounds like a verdict on engineers. It is not. The 80% figure measures typing, not deciding, and the interesting question is what the remaining 20% actually consists of, because that is where the job moved. This episode breaks down what a claim like that can and cannot tell you, and what changes in your week if it is true at your company too.
