Google just confirmed the AI reality many programmers are desperately trying to deny

AI is slowly taking over coding but many programmers are still sticking their head in the sand about what’s coming…

Now Google’s Chief Scientist just made a telling revelation: AI now generates at least 25% of their code.

Can you see — it’s happening now at top software companies with billions of active lines of code.

All these people still acting like AI-assisted coding is just a gimmick that nobody actually uses in production.

Some people in my comment sections even said that using AI tools don’t make you more productive…

Like come on — I thought we all agreed GitHub Copilot was a smash. The over 1.3 million paying users they had this time last year wasn’t enough proof?

In case you don’t know, software developers are not a very easy group of people to monetize — your tool must be really something to have over 1.3 million of them pay for it.

And even if most of these are from businesses, something tells me not every developer tool can get anywhere close to these numbers from B2B.
