Goldman Sachs has implemented a company-wide AI assistant to enhance productivity across various departments, including investment banking and wealth management. As of June 2025, approximately 10,000 employees were already using this AI tool. In a further advancement, the bank is piloting an autonomous AI software engineer named Devin, developed by the artificial intelligence startup Cognition. Devin is described as the world’s first AI software engineer and is designed to perform tasks such as drafting unit tests, cleaning legacy code, and opening pull requests, with human oversight on all changes. This hybrid workforce approach, combining AI and human developers, has reportedly increased development productivity by three to four times and solved nearly 14% of real GitHub issues. Goldman Sachs currently employs around 12,000 software developers, and Devin is expected to join their ranks, marking a notable milestone for AI integration on Wall Street.
