Yes, millions of people running code agents around the clock, where every tiny change generates a commit, a branch, a PR, and a CI run.

I simply do not believe that all of these people can and want to setup a CI. Some maybe, but even after the agent will recommend it only a fraction of people would actually do it. Why would they?

No its not. 121M repos added on github in 2025, and overall they have 630 million now. There is probably at best 2x increased in output (mostly trash output), but no where near 100x

Published in Oct 2025... I think your estimate is off.

Note the hockey stick growth in the graph they showed in Oct.

Here we are in February.

It's gotten way worse now with additional Claude's, Claw's, Ralph's, and such.

It may not be 100x as was told to me but it's definitely putting the strain on the entire org.

There’s a huge up tick in people who weren’t engineers suddenly using git for projects with AI.

This is all grapevine but yeah, you read that right.
