With AI now writing over 25% of Google’s code, the role of software engineers is evolving. Here's how AI impacts tech jobs and what engineers can expect.

On Tuesday, Google's CEO revealed that AI systems now generate more than a quarter of new code for its products, with human programmers overseeing the computer-generated contributions. The statement, made during Google's Q3 2024 earnings call, shows how AI tools are already having a sizable impact on software development.

One of the latest trends in the generative AI space is AI agents, and Google may be prepping its own agent to be a feature of an upcoming Gemini large language model (LLM).
