Devs know AI code is riddled with holes, but ship it anyway

One important factor is that those who don't want to ship the bug riddled code are being labeled as less productive and laid off.

"Reasons given include pressure to deploy quickly, vulnerabilities being too difficult to fix, and reliance on other controls to pick up the pieces." Are they not warning their bosses? I find this reasoning hard to believe. If management doesn't care, the problem has little to do with AI. A more reasonable explanation is that they hate that they are forced to use AI and they ship Swiss cheese as and act of sabotage, apathy, or to prove AI's incompetence at taking over their job.

When companies like Microsoft can get away with it with zero consequences, it sort of seems like less of an issue.

On one had, AI is being used to cybersecurity and used to find bugs in Linux etc. On the other hand, it seems that AI can't write code without bugs. So where is the disconnect?

I didn't realize all code before LLM was hole proof.

It’s because upper management demands it. Do most of your coding with an LLM or find another job, etc. How much you “llm all the things” is now a measured performance metric. It’s pure madness but employees are obligated to give the people that pay them what they want. Either that or lose your healthcare and housing.
