In a recent earnings call, CEO Sundar Pichai confirmed that artificial intelligence has become a cornerstone of Google’s code development strategy, with more than a quarter of the company’s new code now generated by AI and subsequently reviewed by human engineers. This approach is part of Google’s deepening commitment to AI across its product suite and development processes, highlighting its mission to drive speed, productivity, and innovation.


Pichai’s remarks come from an AI-focused Q3 earnings report, which Google published on its Keyword blog. He outlined several AI-driven enhancements, including updates to Search with AI-powered overviews, Lens functionality, and a novel “circle to search” feature for Android users. In addition, Pichai emphasized Google Cloud’s growth, which he attributes to Vertex (Google's generative AI model platform) and BigQuery, the company's data platform aiding machine learning. Among Google's new AI ventures is a partnership with Volkswagen of America, introducing myVW, an AI assistant for drivers, and Gemini’s 75% integration rate within Google Workplace.


A key takeaway for Pichai was Google's “full stack approach” to AI, where AI tools are embedded throughout the development cycle, allowing engineers to boost efficiency and accelerate development. According to Pichai, "more than a quarter of all new code at Google is generated by AI, then reviewed and accepted by engineers," a process that enables Google’s technical teams to work more effectively and at faster speeds.


The larger trend of AI's encroachment into traditionally human-dominated tasks has spurred concern, especially as roles in fields like game development, design, and ad sales see increased automation. Google’s use of AI for coding underscores a shift that many technology firms are pursuing, with AI playing an integral role in innovation and operations.
