"20%-30% of code inside the company’s repositories"
Now, if they had said "20%-30% of code written in the past 6 months..." I might buy that.
The repositories are going to have all the current codebase, likely going back years now. AI generated code is barely viable at this point and really only pretty recently.
No way 1/3rd of all current codebase is AI.
Even 20% of new code would be a stretch unless they count every first iteration of code written by AI that needs to be replaced by a human later because it was plain wrong.
Maybe they're counting the six iterations of code it gives me as I tell it what's wrong with each one.
"Please move all comments from in-line to the line above, and add a separator line"
They mean new code, as per the article. And they mean code gen and IntelliSence
