What Does This Mean?
[ AI CODING ][ MACHINE CULTURE ]
Code written by an AI model rather than typed by hand, now common enough to be its own tracked category distinct from human-authored code in review, ownership, and debt conversations.
REAL-WORLD EXAMPLE
"Half the codebase is generated code at this point, and nobody's tracking which half."
LORE & ORIGIN
Became a meaningful distinct category once teams needed to talk about the provenance of code, not just its content.
