[Music] Thank you all so much for coming to this talk. Um, thank you for being at this conference. Generally, my name is Tomas.I'm one of the co-founders of Graphite and I'm here to talk to you around AI power entomology. If you don't know, entomology is the study of bugs. It's something that we do.We is very near and dear to our heart and part of what our product does. So, Graphite, for those of you that don't know, builds a product called Diamond. Diamond is an AI powered code reviewer.You go ahead, you u ...

Industry Trends - Software development has two loops: an inner loop focused on development and an outer loop focused on review [1] - AI adoption is increasing among developers, with nearly every developer surveyed using AI tools [2] - 46% of code on GitHub is being written by AI, indicating a significant shift in code generation [3] - The inner loop is changing due to AI, making developers more productive and producing higher volumes of code [3][4] - The outer loop is becoming a bottleneck as developers have to review, test, merge, and deploy higher volumes of code [5] Graphite's Solution (Diamond) - Graphite aims to create a new outer loop to address the challenges posed by increased code volume [6] - Graphite's AI code review platform, Diamond, focuses on high signal, low noise, deep understanding of codebase and change history [13] - Diamond summarizes, prioritizes, and reviews each change, integrating with CI and testing infrastructure [13] - Diamond aims to reduce code review cycles, enforce quality and consistency, and keep code private and secure [13] - AI-generated feedback from Diamond's comments are accepted at a 52% rate, higher than human comments (45-50%) [15][16]
