How do you know?
As you haven't evidenced your claim, you could start by providing explicit examples of what is significant.
Even if you are correct, the amount of llm-assisted code is increasing all the time, and we are still only a couple of years in - give it time.
Why not ask the actual experts
Many would regard Karpathy in the expert category I think?
Since "AI" became a religion, it is used as an excuse for layoffs while no serious software is written by "AI". The "AI" people are making the claims. Since they invading a functioning software environment, it is their responsibility to back up their claims.
So if we s/serious/money-making/, you are wrong - or at least about to be proven, as these things enter prod and are talked about.
I am an “AI skeptic”, so clearly I am biased here. What I am seeing in the repositories is, that Copilot hasn’t made any substantial contributions so far. The PRs, that went through? They often contain very, very detailed feedback, up to the point line by line replacements have been suggested.
The same engineers, that went up stage at “Microsoft Build 2025” to tell how amazing Copilot is and how it made them a 100x developer? They are not using Copilot in any of their PRs.
You said it’s a religion. I’d say it’s a cult. Whatever it is, outside the distortion bubble, this whole thing looks pretty bad to me.
Google (made a small browser or something) also develops their own models, I don't think it's far fetched to imagine there is at least one developer on the Chrome/Chromium team that is trying to dogfood that stuff.
As for Autodesk, I have no idea what they're up to, but corporate IT seems hellbent on killing themselves, not sure Autodesk would do anything differently so they're probably also trying to jam LLMs down their employees throats.
It's also an advertisement for potential "AI" military applications that they undoubtedly propose after the HoloLens failure:

The HoloLens failure is a great example of overhyped technology, just like the bunker busters that are now in the headlines for overpromising.

Very impressive indeed, not a single line of any quality to be found despite them forcing it on people.
As an actual open source developer I'm not seeing anything. I am getting bogus pull requests full of AI slop that are causing problems though.
No, but I haven't looked. Can you?
As an actual open source developer too, I do get some value from replacing search engine usage with LLMs that can do the searching and collation for me, as long as they have references I can use for diving deeper, they certainly accelerate my own workflow. But I don't do "vibe-coding" or use any LLM-connected editors, just my own written software that is mostly various CLIs and chat-like UIs.
This whole thing is a religion.
