    companys-002116317.html

    “Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella said that 20%-30% of code inside the company’s repositories was “written by software” — meaning AI — during a
    fireside chat with Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg at Meta’s LlamaCon
    conference on Tuesday.”

    “Nadella gave the figure after Zuckerberg asked roughly how much of Microsoft’s code is AI-generated today. The Microsoft CEO said the
    company was seeing mixed results in AI-generated code across different languages, with more progress in Python and less in C++.”

    Currently all my C++ code is written with the help of AI (Github
    copilot). It basically replaces some googling. some find-and-replace and
    some recorded macros (which Visual Studio ditched several years ago) and sometimes offers some interesting code proposals. Still, at the moment I
    would say it is ca 50-50, I am not exactly sure if the overall effort of checking and fixing its code takes less time than figuring the correct
    approach out myself. At least it feels like communicating with someone
    who understands vaguely what I am doing for living! Hey, that's
    something ;-)
