Google says 75% of the company's new code is AI-generated

Onky 75%? I thought they were "all in" on the AI future.
Fucking amatures.
Is that a good metric??
Isn't this just stating that you're letting something with the coding ability of a toddler run amok through your product, having to constantly be bug-fixed by your remaining engineers?
This is exactly what Microsoft started doing, and its so far worked out terribly for them. Loads of their new software updates have had unacceptablely large bugs for even simple things like task manager!
Most of my code is ai generated - but I have to carefully review everything because it ofte makes poor decisions.
internet is going to collapse under rampant cybercrime at some point, all the slopcode will have everything so broken and vulnerable hackers will have choiceparalyze.
Oh I'm sure this will end well. /s
Is this why everything feels EVEN SHITTIER than it did a year ago?
I’m convinced that is a generated metric that is far away from reality. the objective is too make their product seem better than it is
*75% of code was written by people who were required to have an AI plug in installed.
Probably also having their usage tracked.
Also have had their work loads increased and their deadlines shortened.
And if they don’t hit the metrics and meet the shorter deadlines… they get fired.
I’m sure that’s a recipe for functional, well tested, efficient, and secure software. Definitely not creating a shit ton of technical debt.
And I guess engineers would be held responsible for the code produced by the AI agent's they're pressured to use.
So management can blame and fire more engineers when things go wrong.
Yeah, we can tell...
Man Gemini sucks. They force replaced assistant with Gemini for me.
"Hey google, play my rock playlist"
"You dont have a rock Playlist on youtube music"
"Hey google play rock Playlist on spotify"
"You dont have "rock Playlist on Spotify" on youtube music"
We call this fucking progress?
I know its barely related to the post. Just fuck Google and fuck their ai
And yet Gemini sent people to the wrong location. A lot of people.
100 people went to the wrong Overland Park Farmers Market based on false AI info
This will not end well.
We can tell
And that's only 30% lol
This is such a stupid metric and any investors excited by it should feel bad.
I'd say something, but it's pretty much all been covered. They're now too big to fail, so we just have to put up with whatever they serve up next.
I'm not changing phone ecosystems, as I enjoy having some marginal level of control over the hardware I fucking purchased. Search is fucking worthless; I've not used that in ages. DDG gets the job done without a screen and a half of ads and sponsored content.
Who the fuck puts up with this shit?

Also, as I have nearly run out of fucks to give: Fuck. And now I'm out of them again.
Can't wait for Google to lose billions to understand that we don't want slop. DeGoogle everyone.
Enshitifying your own Enshitification
Ah, so that's why things are so fucked.
"Yes, but have you shipped anything positive?"
Why would you tell people?
Gotta justify all the money being poured into it.
I have a friend at Google who been saying "sorry p0 bug" so much in the last month...
I still remember the good old days when google has the best code quality among big techs. That being said, seeing how shitty everyone's code has become, google might still be the best :)
Do they mean Google or Alphabet?
Crazy how they wrote google over and over again, and you still ask this.
I asked what they meant not what they said, they share a CEO
You're going to have to use a different word that you actually know the definition of.
Rude for no reason
