AI Coding Data Shows Widespread Use but No Industrywide Code Share

AI tools are common in software development, but recent findings measure different kinds of use and output, leaving no comparable industrywide figure for how much code AI produces. At Google, AI-generated code approved by engineers accounted for 75% of new code on April 22, up from 50% the previous fall. That figure covers new code at one company. It cannot be applied to software development as a whole. A survey conducted in October 2025 and published in January 2026 asked professional developers to estimate the share of code they committed that AI had generated or significantly assisted.
