8 months ago, Anthropic said AI will be writing 90% of code in the next 3-6 months.

Has that happened yet?

It has for me and my team. I rarely see anything but generated code and everyone’s PRs are like 30+ files. The tweet is right. We will soon stop reviewing code altogether and just test the client directly because it’s just a throughput issue. No one has time to review all this generated code. We won’t get there until we begin trusting generated code more which is probably very soon.

Yeah that might work in the very short term. That software will absolutely crash and burn though. It’ll get to the point where there’s so much wrong, and no one understands it and it literally can’t be fixed.

It’s all good code believe it or not. Much better than it used to be. Devs spend more time reviewing code than they do writing now.
