OpenAI president says AI is now writing 80% of the company’s code

Greg Brockman’s comments at Sequoia’s AI Ascent 2026 conference fit a pattern of AI lab leaders citing self-reinforcing productivity numbers, but the underlying evidence on AI coding productivity remains substantially more contested than the headline figure suggests.

In 2015, he co-founded CTRL-labs, a neural interface startup that built a wristband capable of translating electrical […]
