Goldman Sachs Deploys AI Coding Agent Devin as Digital Employee
Goldman Sachs is implementing Cognition's AI coding agent Devin as a "new employee" to augment its workforce of 12,000 human developers. The bank plans to deploy hundreds to potentially thousands of Devin instances in a supervised hybrid workforce model.
Skynet Chance (+0.03%): The deployment of AI agents as "employees" in critical financial infrastructure represents a step toward AI systems having more autonomous operational roles, though the supervised hybrid model provides human oversight.
Skynet Date (+0 days): Large-scale deployment of AI agents in enterprise environments accelerates the normalization of AI autonomy in critical systems, though the pace impact is modest given the supervised nature.
AGI Progress (+0.02%): The commercial deployment of AI agents capable of complex coding tasks at enterprise scale demonstrates meaningful progress in AI capability and real-world applicability. The scale of deployment (hundreds to thousands of instances) indicates the technology has reached practical maturity.
AGI Date (+0 days): Major financial institutions adopting AI agents for core technical work accelerates the practical development and refinement of AI capabilities through real-world application and feedback loops.
