On an earnings call, the CEO of General Motors admitted that close to 90% of code for the company’s autonomous vehicle division is being written by AI, reports Joel South in 24/7 Wall Street.
“This is safety-critical software being machine-written at scale,” South adds. According to South, “The 90% applies to GM’s autonomy team specifically, not all of GM’s code base. It powers the next-generation eyes-off, hands-off Super Cruise system targeted to launch on the Cadillac Escalade IQ in 2028. This is pre-launch code, not yet in customer cars.”
