Two notes from this year-old prediction:
— Ethan Mollick (@emollick) 26 mars 2026
1) You can either view this as hype (100% of code is not written by AI) or a startlingly solid prediction (Claude Code didn’t exist then, but now writes a remarkably high percentage of code)
2) Adoption is more of a barrier than technology https://t.co/z7kG2be8hfTwo notes from this year-old prediction:
