Now I understand why at each windows 11 update, they introduce more bugs than ever

    I bet they’re counting code written while someone had an AI plugin installed as “written by AI” and I bet that accounts for almost all of that 30%. On top of that, I’m betting that they made it mandatory to have such a plug in, and the other 70% is just code written before they mandated this.

      I would be very surprised if 30% of their code lines had even been touched at all by anyone since AI coding assistants became a thing.

        I could see stuff getting small changes and them claiming that the entirety of the new version is “written by AI”.

      Also, having 1/3 lines with obvious code that can be auto suggested correctly would make sense, but that is hardly code “written by ai” in the way they suggest.

        I’d guess a lot of the people writing the code don’t even have it turned on, it’s just installed because management said it had to be, because management wants to be able to tell investors they’re “innovating work flows”.

          I am a small sample to confirm that’s exactly the reason in my brother’s company.

          And in my company we’re pressured to make X prompts every week to the company’s own ChatGPT wrapper to show we’re being productive. Even our profit shares have a KPO attached to that now. So many people just type “Hello there” every morning to count as another interaction with the AI.
