Robinhood Co. says their software is now 100% written by AI

https://www.businessinsider.com/robinhood-ceo-majority-new-code-ai-generated-engineer-adoption-2025-7

Robinhood CEO Vlad Tepes has said that the majority of his company's new code is written by AI, with "close to 100%" of engineers using AI code editors.

Eventhough they still have software engineers, the engineers are completely reliant on AI software.

Speaking on the 20VC podcast, Tepes estimated around 50% of new code at the trading platform is AI-generated.

Tepes said the 50% figure is imprecise due to advanced "agentic" code editors that have made it difficult to distinguish human-written from AI-generated code.

So in truth its close to 100%.

The company has progressed from GitHub Copilot to Cursor and now Windsurf, where "nearly all of the code is written by AI," he said. Tepes estimated only a "minority" of new code at Robinhood is written by humans.

Reminder that "Finbro" is a somali virgin neet who makes 10 retarded fake news threads every day.

if you werent analfabetic, 80 IQ Iraqi man posing as a refugee in Swiss, you could realize this article is the same stuff businessinsider has already stated

If there is anything wrong with it, its businessinsiders fault

Not surprised. Robinhood Europe app has tons of bugs when buying us stocks, and sometimes order doesn't go through and fails randomly. Probably due to currency exchange or something

If you have ever used ai to generate code, you know how laughable this is.

>>510706655
Sometimes it works well. Depends on what you need.

I created tkinter GUI and it works fine for LLM testing

Robinhood does love to fuck small investors in the ass with a dry stake.

Now you know why

If you know how to actually ask it to write code, it's honestly very easy. However, they also have different LLMs, that you do not use. They are designed for coding in mind.

Ok, retard.

>>510707248
Source? Or you mean GME ?

>>510707481
This. Also, if someone has coding skills, they can write a list of potential mistakes already prior to asking, so the fallback is already implemented.

Claude AI is actually very good at making numerous different fallback methods for something very simple... I was making a program that gets Windows file paths and it created various fallbacks to accurately get all possible paths without erroring and crashing

>>510709233
As a rule of thumb, if you find """AI""" code boosting your productivity, you are a jeet-tier coder and not an actual programmer. There was actually a recent study testing the impact of """AI tools""" on programmer productivity with experienced devs and found that the ones who thought """AI""" makes them 20% faster were actually 20% slower than the non-AI users. That's for pro-tier devs. Make that 2000% slower with CRUD monkeys and other kinds of API plumbers.

Good thing I'm not a coder. I was bad at math in high school and university. AI makes scripting way more accessible for me.

>>510710156
Then why do you express opinions about the quality of AI slop "code"?

Doesn't mean it's actually any good. Anything is more useful than nothing when you're some fag who can't even code.

>>510710552
>some fag who can't even code
Are you underpaid and worried that AI will replace you eventually ?

>>510710610
I quit professional programming long before """AI code""" became a thing. I have no personal fucks to give about wagies potentially getting replaced. It just rubs me the wrong way how marketing kikes keep trying to gaslight everyone into the idea that """AI""" can do anything that requires thought.

>>510705478 (OP)
Can't wait for this stupid bubble to pop. AI in bullshit that has to be babysat by the engineer on any non-trivial task. It actually REDUCES productivity for senior engineers that know what they're doing. The only people benefiting from this are entry-level programmers and braindead 'vibe coders'

>>510710847
>gaslight everyone into the idea that """AI"""

It's just AI hype / bubble and everyone is trying to profit. Look how quickly google implemented ai search and gemini after openai, prior there were 0 signs they have anything to compete with

>>510711134
>Can't wait
You're just butthurt about it because you spent years in training to become a coder/programmer only to find out 10 years later than someone without much programming knowledge as me (poltard with no job) can get the same working code as you wrote, only a bit less efficient.

>>510711225
>someone without much programming knowledge as me (poltard with no job) can get the same working code as you wrote, only a bit less efficient.
Impressive. Very nice. Now let's see the product.

>>510711225
> can get the same working code as you wrote, only a bit less efficient.
Only an absolute retard would think this. AI written code has massive bugs in it that wouldn't even realize were there without experience, hallucinated method calls. We are objectively in a moron bubble right now. Too many charlatans and grifters are making too much money off AI to reveal the truth.

>>510711303
It still works and that's all that matters. Rarely anyone cares about bugs or shit unless it's medical (therac-25 - humans also made mistakes), aircraft or space industry or something very crucial or life-dependent.

>>510711414
>it was real in my mind
Let's see the product.

>>510711414
If nobody cares about bugs, you're working on an irrelevant project nobody cares about. Bugs can cost millions of dollars in any serious domain of programming.

thanks i guess

>>510711475
Nobody cares about bugs. Bill Gates made billions on an OS that bluescreened every 15 minutes and today niggercattle is used to products being basically unusable upon release and relying on daily patches to slowly evolve into a workable state.

>>510711679
You're just straight up wrong. Try making a payment processing bug at a major company and see how many hours you last in your job after it goes live. AI produces bugs like this at firehose velocity. Giving AI to a junior engineer is like giving a chainsaw to a toddler.

Anon I...

>>510711773
>most software is payment processing software

>>510711856
They're talking about new code written. Given the platform has been feature complete for years now, the new code written is likely a very small % of the total codebase.

>giving a chainsaw to a toddler.

crazy stuff let me tell you that

>>510709393
I'm strongly reminded of Shenzhen IO and the efficiency graph at the end of a puzzle.
There's always a wizard with minimal coding/steps, then the minority of skilled coders with experience and legit expertise, and then there's the overwhelming majority which includes people like me who never learned how to code.
Zoomers are expecting AI to be like that wizard but I get the feeling it's closer to the wasteful blob.

>>510711908
Robin Hood is effectively payment processing software. Massive amounts of money are moving around and people tend to get pretty upset if their money disappears because some braindead """software engineer""" vibe coded a critical bug into the trading platform.

>>510705478 (OP)
What's wrong with her right eye?

Yes, new agentic software makes it easy to generate production ready code even for large projects. You still need a capable engineer to prompt and review, but that means you can have a team of 2 instead of 10. Juniors are fucked

>>510712108
I understand what you're saying but niggercattle doesn't care about bugs. It cares about losing money - sure - and sometimes bugs cause that, but the overwhelming majority of the time they don't. Like it or not, buggy, garbage-tier software is already completely normal and you can thank pre-AI programming languages and practices (e.g. C++, POO) for that.

yikes I need a new brokerage

>>510706655
best way to do it is use the LLM as your corpo secretary
it's very good for making project outlines, or getting step by step what to look up so you can write the code or have some psuedo reference, but when it comes down to the nitty gritty it fails because it doesn't know what data is or contains it only knows text

>>510712290
Yeah fair enough, half the successful hacks in human history were because of easily anticipated buffer overflows in C++

>>510712777
Checkt. Lisp machines should have won.

If you're using AI for anything other than boilerplate, you're either writing tiny little skid programs or you're actually shit tier

damn ottomans

>>510712252
Juniors get extra fucked because most of them have relied on LLM-based code generation for their entire education now. Why would I want to hire someone who adds no productivity (I can query an LLM more efficiently than them because I know how to describe the fundamentals and advanced details of what I want, plus I know how to review what comes back)? The few who actually learned instead of just cruising through with these tools will still have a hard road but they at least have value as an investment

Imagine working somewhere that forces you to switch to a completely new text editor ever month. That’s schizo tier shit. No competent programmer would ever stay at a place like that.

>cares about losing money

Microsoft don't give a fuck about desktop OS (as a one example of why no one cares about bugs). Instead of fixing bugs on W11, they bring all attention to replacing skype with teams (electrum based web app crap) and cloud computing and other useless bullshit targeted to non-power users (to convince for example sign up for o365 subscriptions, teams premium, etc)...

If this is true, I'd advise anyone using their software to delete their account because AI writes jeet level code.

It's all smoke and mirrors for investors all the way up and down
If you're actually a software engineer you just know that it's not there yet, it really isn't, not for anything important or complex. What's more likely is "Almost some portion of code may plausibly be assisted by an engineer using AI" not "The AI is writing every piece of code."

>>510719246
Microsoft said the same thing in their most recent earnings call and it turns out the reality is they're calling auto-generated boilerplate code they had scripts generating for years "AI generated" to fool investors

You mean using github copilot or whatever? You still need to know how to code.
