Meta (formerly Facebook) is reportedly in touch with Microsoft and OpenAI to develop an artificial intelligence (AI) coding assistant for its engineers.

According to ‘Command Line’ by The Verge’s Alex Heath, Meta CTO Andrew Bosworth recently briefed employees about the plan, saying the cost of building an AI coding engineer is “insane” at around seven cents per question.

“It’s the only place in the company where we’re really looking at working with Microsoft and OpenAI, just because there’s a natural business integration,” he told employees.

He revealed that the company is also working on a “partner” that is more about all our code and our internal documentation, built on our own infrastructure.

“We’re moving very quickly. I think we’ll have something to play with internally, I’m hoping in the middle of June, maybe the end of June,” Bosworth said.
