   Saying that 30% of all your code is generated “by software” (not “by AI”, but “by software”) is what you’d say if you knew perfectly well you can’t write and maintain a production OS with LLMs, but you have a financial motivation to inflate the number to ride a hype wave and eyeballed how much of your committed code is machine-generated by templates https://techcrunch.com/2025/04/29/microsoft-ceo-says-up-to-30-of-the-companys-code-was-written-by-ai/

     @0xabad1dea "30% of our code is generated by software" has been true at MS ever since MSVC 1.0 when it generated tons of boilerplate class bs for every class you added.

     @0xabad1dea 100% of my code is generated by software.
