Full title: Microsoft’s distinguished engineer says “typing code is absolutely over,” and Windows 11 is already being built that way. Nadella previously said 20-30% code at MSFT is AI-coded, and Windows security updates now include AI-assisted fixes to fight AI-enabled threats.



Idk how people can type this shit out and not feel disgusting.
Productivity for what. You’ve outsourced your thinking to the gambling prompt machine. Yikes.
Doesn’t look like it. Outsourcing thinking is one thing: “hey, ai, implement this feature, no mistakes --> straight to production”, outsourcing writing code is another thing: “hey, ai, write such and such code --> review --> this is not needed, that should be done this way --> rinse and repeat, then testing, and only then production”
Edit: problem is, I have no sensible ground to believe enough people at microslop do the latter. Nor am I optimistic about this percentage in general, including people of other professions
