That 30% code written by AI part seems extremely doubtful. A lot of companies are signaling this nonsense to make themselves seem modern when in reality it makes them look weak.

Microsoft is one of companies providing AI so they want the hype.
30% of all NEW code seems plausible to me.
Or at least developers whose performance evaluation mandates AI usage and 30% sounds like a good number that's not so big as to make management think they can just lay them off but not so small as to tank their performance review.
It's almost certainly mostly "honor system", from what I've seen they can tell how much code is generated but not how much actually lands in a code repo, except by self reporting.
Bedrock edition has always had dogshit coding though. Could be AI is making it worse or it could be the fact they’ve neglected to fix game breaking bugs for years and all the new buggy code is making it worse.
The Bedrock edition has gained the nickname Bugrock because of how buggy it is. There has been several bugs in the game that just randomly kill the player for literal years. Mojang Redmond is a fucking joke.
Basic fixes for this version of the game have been neglected for so long. Yet not a single issue with the micro transactions stays around for long. Just the ones that break the actual core game get left behind.
Oh and for the people who don’t pay attention to the game, here is a list of the new issues.
- A bug which places the players cursor on screen
- A bug which turns the game completely pink got worse
- Animated textures randomly swap to something weird
- The game tabs you out randomly
- A memory leak issue causing the game to heavily lag
Ty for the list, I was curious since I'm a Java player and wouldn't ever know. That's... yeah that's real bad. It's bad when you make the Java version look stable.
It's funny hearing this as someone locked into Java (microsoft doesn't want Linux users accessing their 2.5 Billion dollar purchase, I guess). Wasn't Bedrock started specifically to get away from all the Java jank?
I’m staying with Java as long as bedrock has micro transactions and Java has a better modding scene.
I’m also a Java player, I refuse to touch the Bugrock edition because of all the problems with it. It’s also sad that Bugrock has gotten this bad this the original upside to it that it ran better is far from true anymore.
Every time I see a video of a hardcore player dying for just existing, my heart hardens a little more, I will stay on Java 1.12.2 and a shitton of mods instead of bugrock (incompatible with Linux)
Holup, is java compatible with Linux? Now i'm even more regret of buying bedrock but then again i wanna play with them niblings.
Java is compatible with Linux, there are multiple third party launchers that make or easier to mod and run the game, I use prismlauncher
It's probably both. AI already struggles when adding code to well-designed codebases, and it's certainly not better at it when the codebase is already crap...
I've seen a ton of weird bugs with Microsoft products in my work these last few months.
It's clear to me they're just rubber-stamping shitting LLM-generated code.
Microsoft and Google alike! It seems all of big tech if cracking at the seams letting AI write code a laid off engineer would have written.
Ah, yes, "We have Minecraft at home"
I too love to hate on open-source projects 😎
I've played on several servers before. It is genuinely what it often feels like. The pacing of the controls and player movement feel ... off. Too slow and with less good response.

The way the jump instant-triggers when hitting the corners of a block while pressing space feels really bad.
Overall I got used to the rest. I actually like that it's buggy, feels more like the Minecraft I used to play, half-broken but promising
It's got a bit to go, it's good, but to say it's better is a bit of a stretch at the moment
It depends I guess what your definition of "better" is
- can you easily use 2 hands in the game? No.
- does it help fund genocide? Also no.
It is so much better.

What did they break?
Outside of the multiple bugs that randomly kill the player that’s been there for years?
A bug which places the players cursor on screen, a bug which turns the game completely pink got worse, animated textures randomly swap to something weird, the game tabs you out randomly and a memory leak.
Thanks for the list. Having with with colleagues that use AI, that indeed sounds like it could be caused by AI.
I can't even tell anymore if AI is really this bad, or if it's the people that want to use it that are this bad.
But I'm sure the layoffs will help improve things, people. It's just a matter of waiting a little more. \s
Both!
It's a bubble
It's more the latter. LLMs are amazing tools for coding but they can't replace actually understanding programming. An LLM is really good at "write a script to do XYZ" but not very good at "Should I be doing XYZ in the first place? Is there a better way? Could that lead to unexpected problems down the line?" From a coding perspective, an LLM is like a really talented graduate who does exactly what you tell her to in the simplest way possible but doesn't know enough yet to know clarifying questions to ask or whether her understanding of what you asked was a good idea in the first place. If you know what you're doing and can give good instructions, both can do great work. But if you're "vibe coding" or are relying on new grads with little real world experience to design your entire system there are bound to be issues. An LLM in the hands of a skilled programmer can increase their ability to write code, but it also does that for bad programmers, and gives the illusion of skill.
For all the bad AI is doing, I’d wager it could make a better meme that that eyesore.
(I agree by the way)
