David Abitbol, who leads AI operations at Revolut, shares what AI tools did to 2,000 engineers' coding time and lead time. The main finding is that self-hosting open-source GLM models delivered about 60-70% faster delivery at roughly a tenth of frontier-lab costs. He covers the GPU sizing, latency targets, tuning that made the same hardware 88% faster, and how an EU-regulated bank keeps the setup compliant.
