The claim, plainly

As of May 2026, artificial intelligence tools generate at least 25% of new code written at enterprise organizations.

a quote alone can be ambiguous, so this restates it with the references and context of the conversation around it resolved. AI-written; the tape below the player is the source.

Assessment

Aggregated telemetry, corporate disclosures, and industry analytics from early to mid-2026 corroborate that AI tools authored at least 25% of new enterprise code. Alphabet reported that 75% of its new code was AI-generated by April 2026 (up from over 25% in late 2024), Microsoft reported 20% to 30% of repository code was AI-generated in 2025, and industry analytics aggregators (such as Netcorp and Second Talent) estimated in early to mid-2026 that 25% to 41% of newly authored enterprise production code globally was generated by AI assistants.

In April 2026 at Google Cloud Next, Alphabet CEO Sundar Pichai announced that approximately 75% of all new code authored across the company was AI-generated and engineer-approved.
GitHub telemetry across 2024–2026 indicated that GitHub Copilot generated an average of 46% of code in files where the tool was active, with deployment across roughly 90% of the Fortune 100 as of January 2026.
Software analytics firms (including Netcorp and Second Talent) estimated in early to mid-2026 that 25% to 41% of newly authored production code globally was AI-generated.
