  • Ultron in Your Codebase: How to Stop AI from Becoming the Villain
    By: Daksh Guard
    Experience Level: Intermediate
    Length: 30 Minutes
    Description:

    AI coding assistants are now generating more code in three days than developers previously wrote in three years, fundamentally transforming how software gets built. 

    Yet our research shows 48-62% of AI-generated code contains security vulnerabilities, with these PRs being rejected 3x more often than human-written code despite their speed.

    Just as Tony Stark's attempt to create a peacekeeping AI resulted in Ultron nearly destroying the world, giving AI unrestricted access to our codebases without proper constraints leads to cascading failures in production systems.

    Through analyzing 1000+ AI pull requests, we've developed a six-stone framework that determines exactly when AI should draft code (Jarvis mode), when it needs human review (Vision mode), and when it should never touch the code at all (preventing Ultron mode).
