Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff says the customer relationship software company expects to spend nearly $300 million on Anthropic tokens in 2026, with a large share of that linked to coding work and AI-powered software development.
Speaking on the All-In podcast, Benioff said AI coding tools are helping engineers work faster and more efficiently rather than replacing them completely. He described coding agents as “awesome” and said they are helping reduce software development costs while increasing output.
