"Cognitive debt" happens to developers using AI for coding: Dumbing down via AI use starts within weeks

3. As I've posted in a couple of other DU messages recently, a survey showed half of developers aren't checking

AI-generated code:

Aikido found that AI-generated code is now the cause of one-in-five breaches, with 69% of security leaders, engineers, and developers on both sides of the Atlantic having found serious vulnerabilities.

These risk factors are further exacerbated by the fact many developers are placing too much faith in the technology when coding. A separate survey from Sonar found nearly half of devs fail to check AI-generated code, placing their organization at huge risk.
