AI Is Now Writing the Code: Microsoft and Meta Lead the Charge

Artificial intelligence isn’t just a buzzword anymore—it’s writing the very code that powers the apps and tools we use daily.

Microsoft recently revealed that 30% of its code is now generated by AI tools like GitHub Copilot. That’s nearly one-third of its software being co-written by machines. And they’re not stopping there. 

Meanwhile, Meta (formerly Facebook) is pushing the limits even further. The tech giant says it’s aiming for over 50% of its code to be written by AI in the near future. Their engineers are already leaning on AI-powered systems to write, debug, and optimize code at unprecedented speeds.

Both companies say this shift isn’t about replacing developers—it’s about enhancing productivity, reducing bugs, and speeding up innovation.

Still, this rapid transformation raises questions:
What happens to human programmers?

Who’s responsible for AI-written code?
And most importantly—can we trust code we didn’t fully write or review?

One thing’s for sure: The future of coding is here, and it has AI fingerprints all over it.
