Devs know AI code is riddled with holes, but ship it anyway (theregister.com) AI

A Checkmarx survey cited by The Register finds that while many developers believe AI-generated code contains more vulnerabilities, pressure to deploy quickly leads teams to ship vulnerable applications anyway—reporting that 70% of respondents expect AI code to be riskier and 93% say vulnerable apps have already led to security breaches. The piece also notes that open source components make up much of production code and warns that accelerating AI-assisted development often outpaces security processes, correlating higher AI code adoption with more frequent breaches.
