- Krei-se 2mo agoName them. Just 2! Any example would be enough. Or well better than 0 and just a claim.
- hexedpackets 2mo agoWe can only guess what products you use, but I'll take a stab by naming some big ones: Spotify - https://techcrunch.com/2026/02/12/spotify-says-its-best-developers-havent-written-a-line-of-code-since-december-thanks-to-ai/ https://techcrunch.com/2026/02/12/spotify-says-its-best-deve... Netflix - https://www.cnbc.com/2025/10/22/netflix-all-in-on-leveraging-ai-in-its-streaming-platform.html https://www.cnbc.com/2025/10/22/netflix-all-in-on-leveraging... Stripe - https://stripe.dev/blog/minions-stripes-one-shot-end-to-end-coding-agents https://stripe.dev/blog/minions-stripes-one-shot-end-to-end-...

- jatora 2mo agoBeyond this i don't think it's wild to assume that somewhere between 70 and 90% of all software has heavy AI involvement. It would just be foolish not to
- Krei-se 2mo agoYou can even assume 120% is.
- Krei-se 2mo agoThese are grown and stable platforms now getting additions with the help of AI (which is not wrong) but they are not built by one. Its like saying you live in a 3D printed home because you added a 3D printed decoration + the house is structurally stable == its a stable 3D printed house.
- satvikpendem 2mo agoThis is goal post moving; partially built still means built.
- Krei-se 2mo agoYours a partially smart take for sure.
- satvikpendem 2mo agoIt is, hence why it's right.
- kuschku 2mo agoI do notice and realize, and I've gotten to the point where I had to fork and patch most of them to fix the shitty AI generated code. It's so bad, and so everywhere, that I'm genuinely considering switching to a pre-AI stable distro and waiting 10 years for the AI hyped to be over before updating any piece of software ever again.
- jatora 2mo agoThis simply isn't true. You're typing on a website that uses it...literally right now. You use countless things that you aren't forking.
- NothingAboutAny 2mo agoI'd believe it, my spotify breaks all the time now and I seem to remember them announcing none of their devs code anymore. not 10 seconds ago I had to force close it to get it to stop playing music on my phone.
- camdenreslink 2mo agoI have had to force quit Spotify a couple times recently because it was using many GB of memory to the point where it was unresponsive.
