"Probably in 2025 we at Meta, as well as the other companies that are basically working on this, are going to have an AI that can effectively be a sort of mid-level engineer at your company that can write code."

"In the beginning it'll be really expensive to run, then you can get it to be more efficient and then over time we'll get to the point where a lot of the code in our apps and including the AI that we generate is actually going to be built by AI engineers instead of people engineers."

Research from Gartner found the maturity of the AI coding assistant market accelerated dramatically in the space of a year in 2023, with the use of these tools growing from just 10% of developers to 63% by the third quarter of the year.
