Satya says: "I’d say maybe 20%, 30% of the code that is inside of our repos today and some of our projects are probably all written by software".

Zuckerberg says: "Our bet is sort of that in the next year probably … maybe half the development is going to be done by AI, as opposed to people, and then that will just kind of increase from there".

It's hard to square those statements up with what we're seeing happen on these PRs.

These are AI companies selling AI to executives, there's no need to square the circle, the people that they are talking to have no interest in what's happening in a repo, it's about convincing people to buy in early so they can start making money off their massive investments.

Why shouldn’t we judge a company’s capabilities against what their CEOs claim them to be capable of?

Oh, we absolutely should, but I'm saying that the reason the messaging is so discordant when compared with the capabilities is that the messaging isn't aimed at the people who are able to evaluate the capabilities.

Well, that makes sense to me. Microsoft's software has gotten noticably worse in the last few years. So much that I have abandoned it for my daily driver for the first time since the early 2000s.

The fact that Zuck is saying "sort of" and "probably" is a big giveaway it's not going to happen.
