404 Media: Proton pushes AI coding, re-interviews staff to check adoption

404 Media 调查 Proton 内部 AI 转型：CEO Andy Yen 强推全面用 AI 并重面试员工

A 404 Media investigation found that Proton CEO Andy Yen is pushing the company to adopt AI across its work and re-interviewing employees to check how they use it, raising concerns about security and job security. The report draws on interviews with eight current and one former employee, plus internal chats, meeting recordings and documents. Proton's CTO said 90% of the company's code was written by AI in October; several employees said they mainly use Anthropic's Claude.

Why it matters: The investigation describes staff who say they cannot voice security concerns and worry about losing their jobs as Proton pushes AI coding.
