Overview

  • Vibe coding platforms powered by generative AI now enable engineers to prototype applications up to 100 times faster than before.
  • Centralized security teams struggle to review the flood of AI-produced code, leaving critical vulnerabilities undetected.
  • Security experts including Wiz CTO Ami Luttwak advocate for democratizing security through self-service tools that integrate directly into developer workflows.
  • Human oversight remains essential to prevent hidden vulnerabilities, code rot and mounting technical debt in AI-generated code.
  • The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics forecasts a 25% increase in software developer jobs through 2032, highlighting continued demand for human oversight in AI-assisted development.
