Tech Companies Report 30-84% of New Code Now Written With AI Assistance

DoubleVerify CEO Mark Zagorski said during a May 6 earnings call that the company is using agents to create code, resulting in 40% faster software development. Fubo CEO David Gandler said during a May earnings call that about 35% of its code is completed with AI. Gandler said that about 200 of Fubo's employees now use either ChatGPT or Claude Code.

Gandler said some of Fubo's top engineers actually don't code anymore. Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei said in October that Claude is writing 90% of the code generated by most teams at the company. Amodei said at the annual Dreamforce conference that he had predicted six months earlier that 90% of code would be written by AI models and that this is now true within Anthropic and companies it works with.

Amodei said that companies still need as many engineers, if not more, to review code and supervise the AI models. Alphabet has said that 50% of its code is written by agents and checked by human engineers. Alphabet chief financial officer Anat Ashkenazi said in a February earnings call that AI helps engineers do more and move faster with the current footprint.

Google CEO Sundar Pichai said on April 29 that the company is pushing into the next frontier of foundation models including agentic coding with its platform Antigravity. Pichai said on the April earnings call that with Antigravity the company is shifting to truly agentic workflows where engineers are orchestrating fully autonomous digital task forces and building at a faster velocity.

Mark Zuckerberg said on a January 2025 episode of The Joe Rogan Experience that in 2025 Meta and other companies would have an AI that can effectively be a midlevel engineer that can write code.

Meta said in its January earnings call that it has increased output per engineer by 30%, with most of that growth coming from the adoption of agentic coding. Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi said in May that the company is seeing the use of AI grow at unbelievable rates. Khosrowshahi told analysts in May that AI agents produce about 10% of the company's code now.

Khosrowshahi said the company is investing more in AI and less in hiring. Alex King is the founder of AI talent acquisition company ExpandIQ. Business Insider reported that visibly AI-forward companies attract the right talent profile needed to actually become an AI-centric company.
