Coinbase: Over 95% of Code Now Written or Assisted by AI, AI Agent Workload Equivalent to 1,200 Employees

Rob Witoff, Platform Leader at Coinbase, stated that currently, over 95% of the company's code is written or completed with the assistance of AI, a significant increase from the 40% figure announced in February this year. In an interview with Cointelegraph, Coinbase Platform Leader Rob Witoff said: "In fact, 100% of Coinbase employees use AI every day." Witoff noted that most Coinbase engineers currently run 5 to 10 AI Agents simultaneously. The combined work capability of these AI Agents is equivalent to approximately 1,200 employees.

He predicts that by 2030, Coinbase's AI Agents could handle a workload equivalent to 100,000 employees. However, he stated that key areas such as core cryptography will still require human involvement, with AI primarily used for code testing, vulnerability checking, and prototyping. (Cointelegraph)
