Ah, indeed:

Today, more than a quarter of all new code at Google is generated by AI, then reviewed and accepted by engineers. This helps our engineers do more and move faster.

Sounds like bs to me, comes across as marketing talk to promote their AI offerings.

I agree that it's suspicious. This is a HUGE number that would imply a drastic change in their development process and I'm surprised that they don't give much more information, especially since (as you said) it would promote their product.

They don't give information because there is no information to give. It is just empty rhetoric to bullshit financial analysts. The CEO probably just sent out a company wide email a week before telling developers to do this and they all laughed.
