It was "writing 90% of the code", which seems to be pretty accurate, if not conservative, for those keeping up with the latest tools.

It's not, even by his own citing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iWs71LtxpTE

He said that this applies to "many teams" rather than "uniformly across the whole company".

Yes, those using the tools use the tools, but I don't really see those developers absolutely outpacing the rest of developers who do it the old fashioned way still.

I think you're definitely right, for the moment. I've been forcing myself to use/learn the tools almost exclusively for the past 3-4 months and I was definitely not seeing any big wins early on, but improvement (of my skills and the tools) has been steady and positive, and right now I'd say I'm ahead of where I was the old-fashioned way, but on an uneven basis. Some things I'm probably still behind on, others I'm way ahead. My workflow is also evolving and my output is of higher quality (especially tests/docs). A year from now I'll be shocked if doing nearly anything without some kind of augmented tooling doesn't feel tremendously slow and/or low-quality.

That's not even close. The keyboard is writing 100% of my code. They keyboard is not replacing me anytime soon.

If you added up all the code written globally on Dec 3 2025, how much do you think was written by AI and how much was clacked out on a keyboard?
